One game from ‘23-’24 to help you believe in Brandin Podziemski

Going into his sophomore season, there will be high expectations on Podz.

With the Golden State Warriors losing in the play-in tournament last season and then losing franchise legend Klay Thompson in the process, it’s clear that this team is undergoing a transformation from the Splash Bros-era to...something else?

Whatever that something else is, all Dub Nation can do is hope they’ll be competitive and vie for championships again in a new era of pro basketball that is doing all it can to leave the days of the Golden Empire behind. For those who are still hopeful that the Dubs can make their way back to the top of the mountain, they’ll have to look up and down this roster for signs of hope that aren’t just “Steph Curry make everyone go night night”.

I’ve taken a look at the best game from last year for every non-Curry Warrior for your viewing pleasure so that you can have something to have trust in going into next season. We Believe is what we do after all, ain’t it?

Brandin Podziemski showed out on VDAY against the Clips

Affectionately known as Podz, last year the rookie had a breakout game against the rival. Los Angeles Clippers on Valentine’s Day. He tallied 25 points, 8 assists, 7 rebounds on 9-of-12 shooting from the field, 5-of-5 from beyond the arc.

The Clippers took the win, but it was not without the then 20 year old giving his best Steph Curry impression in the contest.
