Warriors Waive Seth Curry After New Contract, Surprising Move

According to the news, the Golden State Warriors have made a surprising move by waiving Seth Curry, the brother of star player Steph Curry, just days after signing him to a new contract.

This decision was part of the Warriors' plan all along, as Curry's salary was slightly too high to keep the team under the second apron hard cap. By waiving Curry now and bringing him back on board in November, the Warriors will be able to stay just under the salary cap limit.

The article notes that this was not an unexpected move, as the Warriors had signaled it was coming by not playing Curry in any preseason games. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr has also expressed confidence that Curry will be back with the team soon, stating "I'm not worried about Seth. He's not worried about it. He's coming along nicely."

While the details of Curry's status in the meantime are unclear, the expectation is that he will not sign with any other teams and will instead re-join the Warriors in the coming weeks. This strategic roster move by the defending champions demonstrates their commitment to staying competitive while also managing their salary cap effectively.
