Seth Curry Officially Joins Golden State Warriors, Reunites With Brother Stephen Curry
SAN FRANCISCO – The Golden State Warriors today announced the completion of a contract signing with Seth Curry, brother of superstar Stephen Curry, for $3.3 million for the 2025-26 season. This move marks the first time in NBA history that the Curry brothers have officially become teammates at the professional level.
Contract Finalized After Extended Negotiations
According to sources within the Warriors organization, negotiations with Seth Curry took place over the past three weeks. General Manager Bob Myers stated: “Seth brings exactly what we need – elite three-point shooting and extensive playoff experience.”
Seth Curry, 34, led the NBA in three-point percentage during the 2024-25 season at 45.6%, while maintaining a career 43.3% mark – a figure that places him seventh all-time in NBA history.
Stephen Curry Expresses Excitement
“This is something I’ve been hoping for a long time,” Stephen Curry shared during this afternoon’s press conference. “Seth isn’t just my brother, he’s an outstanding player. He’s going to make our team more dangerous.”
The 37-year-old superstar also revealed that he had been persuading Seth through numerous private phone calls: “I told Seth we don’t have much time left to play together. This might be our last opportunity.”
Coach Steve Kerr Announces Usage Plans
Steve Kerr confirmed that Seth Curry will be incorporated into the team’s main rotation and may start in certain games. “We’re going to experiment with lineups featuring both brothers on the court simultaneously,” Kerr said. “Their ability to create offensive spacing will open up opportunities for other teammates.”
The Warriors have planned to utilize Seth at both guard positions, depending on game situations and opponents.
Reaction From the Curry Family
Dell Curry, former NBA player and father of both brothers, expressed his joy in an interview with ESPN: “Sonya and I have been waiting for this moment for years. Seeing both sons wear the same jersey is the greatest thing that could happen to a basketball family.”
Doc Rivers, Milwaukee Bucks head coach and Seth’s father-in-law, also commented: “I’ve been encouraging this for the past three years. Finally, it has become reality.”
Seth Curry’s Change of Perspective
Seth Curry acknowledged changing his mindset about playing alongside his brother. “Previously, I wanted to forge my own path, but at 34, I realize opportunities like this don’t come twice,” he said during his introductory press conference.
“The Warriors have a winning culture and a style of play that suits me. This is the right decision for my career.”
Fan Expectations
Warriors season tickets increased by 15% within just two hours of the announcement. Many fans expressed excitement on social media, with the hashtag #CurryBrothers trending on Twitter.
A longtime Warriors fan, Jennifer Martinez from Oakland, shared: “I’ve been following both brothers since they were young. Seeing them play together will be something special.”
Challenges Ahead
The Warriors are currently in the process of restructuring their roster after an unsuccessful season. Adding Seth Curry is viewed as a crucial step to strengthen their offensive capabilities, particularly their long-range shooting.
The team will begin training camp in September, where the Curry brothers will have their first opportunity to practice together as official NBA teammates.
The 2025-26 NBA season will tip off in October, with the Warriors opening at home at Chase Center.
