• Warriors' Brandin Podziemski: Remains consistent

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Podziemski finished with 14 points (6-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two steals over 30 minutes during Tuesday's 112-86 loss to Miami. Podziemski is having a more prominent role on offense due to the absence of Stephen Curry (pelvis), and the second-year guard has proven he can handle the role. There are games in which his shot hasn't been falling regularly, but more often than not, he's doing a solid job across the board. Over his last four outings, Podziemski is averaging 16.3 points per game while making 50 percent of his three-point attempts.

• Warriors' Brandin Podziemski: Notches 15 points

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Podziemski contributed 15 points (6-14 FG, 3-7 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 35 minutes during Thursday's 117-114 victory over the Raptors. Stephen Curry is expected to miss the start of Golden State's six-game road trip while he receives treatment for his pelvic contusion. With Curry out at least one game, Podziemski is likely to see a bump in usage in the meantime. Podziemski has fared well in his last two outings, averaging 16.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 3.5 three-pointers.

• Warriors' Brandin Podziemski: Notches 17 points in loss

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Podziemski (back) chipped in 17 points (6-10 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal across 29 minutes during Tuesday's 104-93 victory over the Bucks. With Stephen Curry (rest) sitting out the second leg of a back-to-back set, Podziemski stepped into the starting five in his return from a five-game absence due to a bilateral low-back strain. Podziemski faced no limitations in his return and continued his run of encouraging performances that dated back to before he missed time with the injury. Over his last 10 appearances, Podziemski is now averaging 13.4 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.9 three-pointers and 1.1 steals in 27.5 minutes, but it's unclear if he'll be able to maintain that level of playing time moving forward. In addition to getting Curry back as soon as Thursday versus the Raptors, the Warriors recently welcomed Jonathan Kuminga back from an extended absence, which will result in some of Golden State's supporting players sacrificing minutes now that the squad is at full strength.

• Warriors' Brandin Podziemski: Questionable Tuesday

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Podziemski (back) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Bucks. Podziemski has missed the club's last five outings due to a lower back strain, and if he's cleared to suit up Tuesday, he'll likely face restrictions. Over his last five outings before sustaining the injury in a win over Brooklyn on March 6, the 22-year-old combo guard had averaged 12.2 points, 6.2 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.6 three-pointers across 29.2 minutes per game.

• Warriors' Brandin Podziemski: Out two more games

  14D ago • By RotoWire

  Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said prior to Saturday's game against the Knicks that Podziemski (back) is "progressing well" and will remain out through Monday's contest versus the Nuggets before potentially returning to action Tuesday versus the Bucks, Sam Gordon of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. Podziemski will miss his fourth and fifth straight games Saturday and Monday while he recovers from a bilateral low back strain, but the second-year guard looks to be closing in on a return to the court. The 22-year-old had started in each of his last nine appearances prior to getting hurt, but Podziemski could end up filling a bench role upon his return while the Warriors have gotten quality play from Moses Moody on the top unit.
