Stephen Curry has found a new tag for Brandin Podziemski – his “annoying little brother.” It seems that Brandin is capitalizing on the fantastic opportunity he has with the Golden State Warriors. After all, he is surrounded by a Hall of Fame that makes for one of the best NBA rosters in the last decade. And luckily, from all indications and Steph’s remarks, Brandin is actively absorbing as much knowledge as possible.
As a rookie, Podziemski is boasting a 45.8% accuracy from the field and a remarkable 44.1% from beyond the arc. Adding to the touch of Curry in his life is the fact that he might also have a pre-game routine with none other than Stephen Curry himself.

Fans display concerns for Klay Thompson
With Stephen Curry forming a potential new splash brother duo with Brandin Podziemski, fans are expressing growing concerns for Klay Thompson on social media. The worries have even intensified given Klay’s consistent underperformance on the court.
Right from the start, @heeemthurl pointedly highlighted the conspicuous absence of Klay Thompson from the entire narrative; emphasizing the historical significance of Thompson and Curry as the original splash brothers.
