On Tuesday, Dennis Schroder had his first media appearance as a Golden State Warriors player.
The Brooklyn Nets acquired the seasoned point guard earlier this week through a trade deal. His move has added some much needed star power to the Warriors roster. The move has left the fans excited for the remainder of the 2024-25 NBA season.
Schroder spoke about various topics regarding his trade deal to the media lately. He was ecstatic about ‘teaming up’ with Warriors star Stephen Curry. In addition to this, the son of Dennis Schroder adores Steph Curry. The Warriors’ newest player described his son Dennis Jr.’s response when he learned that he had been moved to Golden State.
He watches every game, all he does is basketball and he’s going to be thrilled to see him. Even yesterday when I came in, he was like ‘Was Steph Curry there?’ I was like, ‘You’re not going to ask me how I’m doing?’
Dennis Schroder told the media
The biggest difficulty for Steve Kerr and the remainder of the Warriors will be figuring out reliable scoring options after Curry. With just four victories in their last 13 games, the Golden State Warriors has cooled off after starting the 2024–25 NBA season hot. They are now 14–11 in the West. Also, they face a long season ahead after being knocked out of the NBA Cup lately.

Schroder will provide the Warriors with another potent two-way player who can make baskets. It is impossible to expect Curry to be exceptional every single night. Although Kerr did not rule out playing them together in the backcourt, he anticipates that the veteran will play the majority of the non-Curry minutes.

When you go on the NBA app and see Golden State plays, you get excited… He plays like a video game. He’s just having fun, laughing, making the right reads every single time. He’s one of the superstars who I’ve got a lot of respect for… I’m really excited.

He arrives in the Warriors’ roster shooting 45.2% from the field and 38.7% from three-point range. Also, the Warriors’ season has remained erratic.
