While the Warriors stayed quiet at the NBA trade deadline Thursday, the Brooklyn Nets and Philadelphia 76ers rocked the basketball world with a blockbuster deal centered around embattled stars James Harden and Ben Simmons. But there were other players involved in the trade, including Seth Curry, the younger brother of Warriors star Steph Curry.
The younger Curry brother, in the middle of his best NBA season, is part of the package headed from the 76ers to the Nets. It was surprising to see Philadelphia give up a player averaging 15.0 points per game, but president of basketball operations Daryl Morey really wanted to Harden, so he paid a steep price.

“It was obviously a big move, a big splash,” Curry said. “I know he was kind of caught in the crossfire of Philly making a move like that. Because he loved it there, loved playing there and they were playing well. But obviously you’ve got to make that move. Win-win for him. Hopefully he can still be on a contender and be impactful in the playoff chase with Brooklyn. Excited to see him in a new [uniform].”
The Warriors and Nets already have played their two regular-season matchups, so the only way Steph and Seth can face each other again this season would be in the NBA Finals. And considering where Brooklyn is in the standings with Kevin Durant out, that would be one heck of a story if they met Golden State in June.

Some of Seth Curry‘s family members may not have been pleased with Thursday’s trade that sent him from the Sixers to the Nets, but he’s looking forward to the opportunity in Brooklyn, writes Brian Lewis of The New York Post.
Curry, who is married to the daughter of Philadelphia coach Doc Rivers, was part of the price for Sixers had to pay to bring in James Harden.
“I had a feeling if this trade did go down I was going to be a part of it,” Curry said. “I was preparing for the last week or so. I kind of prepared my mind for it, and I’m just looking forward to the next opportunity. I feel I can fit into a lot of different situations: Play with the ball, play without the ball. I’m just looking forward into coming here and trying to help these guys in whatever way I can.”
