Sharpshooter Seth Curry Waived By the Golden State Warriors

Let’s not forget the journey the younger Curry took to get here. While his big brother Steph was busy becoming a global icon and changing the very fabric of basketball, Seth was carving out his own path. He started his career with the Warriors’ G League team in Santa Cruz, but then intentionally zigged where everyone expected him to zag. He embarked on a journeyman’s tour across the NBA, playing for a whopping 10 different teams. It was a conscious decision to escape the colossal shadow cast by his older brother and prove he belonged on his own terms.

And prove it, he did. Seth has become one of the most lethal sharpshooters in the league. With a career 43.3% clip from behind the arc on 945 made threes, he sits seventh all-time in three-point percentage. That’s not just “good for a Curry”; that’s elite, period. Last season with the Charlotte Hornets, he was lighting it up, shooting an incredible 45.6% from deep.

This summer, after more than a decade of charting his own course, Seth finally decided the time was right to join Steph. The dream of playing together on the biggest stage was finally within reach. This procedural waiving is just a temporary detour. The plan is firmly in place: once the financial dust settles in early November, Seth Curry is expected to re-sign and officially join the roster.

So, while it’s a strange and slightly frustrating start, the Curry-Curry backcourt is still on the horizon. For now, Seth is technically a free agent, arguably the most attractive shooter on the market. But let’s be real—other teams can call, but it feels like his heart and his next contract are already waiting for him in San Francisco. The family reunion is just postponed, not canceled.
