Golden State waives Seth Curry, but there’s a catch

The The Golden State Warriors finished the NBA preseason with a 3-2 record and made one final list adjustment before the regular season. The Warriors they gave up Seth Curry and Lj Crier, although one of those moves may not be permanent. According to Marc Stein of The Stein Line, the Warriors intend to bring Curry back once they regain enough financial flexibility. The decision allows Golden State to temporarily open a roster spot while it finalizes its 17-man roster.

Cryer appeared in five of the Warriors’ NBA preseason games, averaging 5.0 points, 1.8 assists and 1.6 rebounds in limited minutes. Meanwhile, Curry, an 11-year NBA veteran who signed on Oct. 1, did not suit up in any preseason games. Both moves reflect a roster management strategy rather than performance issues as Golden State prepares for the opener.
