Warriors rookie Brandin Podziemski has been a shock packet to date this season and Draymond Green believes he’s the actual deal.
The 20-year-old recorded 13 factors, eight rebounds and two assists in 31 minutes of enjoying time within the Warriors 120-114 win in opposition to the Clippers on Thursday.
Following the sport, Draymond went into nice element about what a particular participant Podziemski is.
“He’s a gamer. He’s a competitor. And he’s smart,” The veteran forward said. “He’s a scholar of the sport. He asks 1,000,000 questions, whether or not it’s to [Chris Paul], whether or not it’s to me or coach, he’s all the time asking questions. He’ll come simply sit subsequent to you and pay attention. And it exhibits up when he performs.
“BP is a type of guys, we knew immediately at mini camp, like yo this child can play. He’s going to shock a bunch of individuals as a result of when you take a look at our roster, I’m sure the expectation was the he’d spend a bunch of time in Santa Cruz. And you noticed him play as soon as and also you’re like, ‘Aw man this kid can play.’ Then you see him play once more. And I truly advised my pals, I do know everyones considering BP’s going to spend a bunch of time in Santa Cruz. Watch him find yourself being part of the rotation.
It’s unlucky that we now have guys out, however while you do have guys out thats your opptunirty to step up and everytime his numbers been referred to as, he’s stepped up. So it’s good to see him have the success that he’s had…he’ll proceed to develop. Eight rebounds, like, I couldn’t even get eight rebounds tonight, like, he’s in all places, he reads the sport, he’s stable. Doesn’t make errors. …Rookies don’t blow up performs. Rookies f*ck up performs. And he doesn’t.”
We have seen shades of Steph Curry from the younger guard on the courtroom, as he has sunk some spectacular photographs from three to date this season.
We may very well be trying on the Warriors future proper right here, as a result of the remainder of the roster definitely isn’t getting anoy youthful.
