The recently drafted Brandin Podziemski has made a strong start to life at the Golden State Warriors, helping his team to a dominant 98-83 win over the Charlotte Hornets at the California Classic on Wednesday.
The 6’5″ guard, taken by the Warriors with the 19th overall pick last month, struggled scoring-wise for the majority of Monday’s game against the Sacramento Kings, before finishing with eight points in the final 70 seconds to offer a glimpse of his potential.
It was a performance Podziemski built upon on Wednesday, producing an impressive two-way display that included 17 points on 50% shooting to go with an eye-popping five steals.
