For the first time since 2010, Steph Curry is preparing to play the majority of a season paired with someone other than Klay Thompson in the Warriors backcourt.
Golden State’s opening-night guard tandem will be Curry and D’Angelo Russell, who he’s never played with before. So it’s time to get practicing.
The pair worked out together Monday morning, evidenced by Russell’s Instagram post.
Though not as ball-dominant as Houston’s James Harden-Russell Westbrook pairing (or the Harden-Chris Paul duo that preceded it), Curry and Russell have some negotiating to do when it comes to sharing the rock.
