• Warriors' Brandin Podziemski: Fills in for Curry with 12 points

  19D ago • By RotoWire

  Podziemski finished with 12 points (4-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and one block across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 105-101 loss to Oklahoma City. With Stephen Curry (knee) absent, Podziemski stepped into the point guard role, but his result fell below his seasonal average. There's no timetable for Curry's return, although the injury isn't considered serious. Podziemski's fantasy impact is limited, and it would take a serious first-unit injury to make his stock rise.

• Warriors' Brandin Podziemski: Not on injury report

  26D ago • By RotoWire

  Podziemski (nose) is not on the injury report for Friday's game against the Pelicans. Podziemski was hit in the face late in Wednesday's win over the Hawks, and X-rays were negative. The fact that the second-year guard is not on the injury report suggests he shouldn't have limitations going forward and that the hit to the nose will end up being nothing more than just a scare. Podziemski is averaging 7.5 points, 4.6 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game this season.

Podziemski suffered a broken nose in the preseason and was forced to wear a mask for several weeks, making Wednesday's incident concerning. Podziemski remained down on the floor for several minutes before getting up and heading back to the locker room. While he's out, Moses Moody, Buddy Hield and Gary Payton could see some extra minutes.
