Warriors waive Seth Curry, but there’s a catch

The Golden State Warriors wrapped up the NBA Preseason with a 3-2 record and made one final roster adjustment before the regular season. The Warriors have waived Seth Curry and LJ Cryer, though one of those moves may not be permanent. According to Marc Stein of The Stein Line, the Warriors intend to bring Curry back once they regain enough financial flexibility. The decision allows Golden State to temporarily open a roster spot as they finalize their 17-man group.

Cryer appeared in five Warriors' NBA Preseason games, averaging 5.0 points, 1.8 assists, and 1.6 rebounds in limited minutes. Meanwhile, Curry, an 11-year NBA veteran who signed on October 1, did not suit up in any preseason games. Both moves reflect roster management strategy rather than performance issues, as Golden State prepare for opening night.
