San Francisco: So, the Warriors just picked up Dennis Schröder, and it’s got everyone buzzing about how it’ll change things for Brandin Podziemski. Coach Steve Kerr thinks this could be a game-changer for him.
Kerr mentioned that last season, Podziemski was playing alongside big names like Chris Paul and Steph Curry. Now, with Schröder in the mix, he can slide back into a role that suits him better. It’s like getting back to what he knows best.
Podziemski had a solid rookie year, averaging 9.2 points, but this season his numbers have dipped a bit. He’s currently at 7.9 points, which isn’t what he hoped for. But with Schröder’s help, he might just find his groove again.
Schröder’s been on fire this season, putting up 18.4 points and 6.6 assists per game. Having him around could really take the pressure off Podziemski and let him shine like he did last year.
It’s all about finding the right combinations on the court, and Kerr is optimistic. He believes there’s a chance for everyone to step up and contribute as the Warriors aim for a playoff spot.
