In an attempt to improve its offence, the Golden State Warriors signed Seth Curry to join Steph Curry, creating a new iteration of the Splash Brothers that is actually related. Since joining the legendary team on December 1, Curry has only played in two games with the Dubs, which may indicate that Steve Kerr doesn’t view the 35-year-old as a regular rotational player.Curry has participated in most of the Warriors’ recent games despite dealing with a couple nagging injuries. It’s just that Kerr doesn’t feel comfortable giving the former guard for the Philadelphia 76ers a bigger role on his underperforming Western Conference team.However, Kerr clarified why the Warriors’ early-December signee didn’t play in the game after Curry’s DNP against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday.“It’s not easy to just throw guys in there randomly after they haven’t been in the rotation in the first three-quarters. He’s definitely going to help us at times, but this wasn’t his night, and we went in another direction.”Although it’s very early in the season, it is disheartening to see a seasoned player such as Curry struggle to see playing time in a lineup which could definitely benefit from a shooter with his skill set. Seth, playing with his brother, started strong.Starting with a quad injury to Stephen Curry, Seth stepped up and scored 14 points in a nearly flawless performance with 6-of-7 shooting, including two shots from beyond the arc. The Warriors re-signed Curry on a one-year contract Monday after he split with them just before camp. He debuted in front of his home crowd the next day.
