The Golden State Warriors drafted Brandin Podziemski with the 19th pick in the 2023 NBA Draft. However, the rookie guard’s route toward legitimate playing time quickly became complicated as Golden State acquired Chris Paul and Cory Joseph during the early stages of the offseason. Suddenly, Podziemski looks like he could be the latest Warriors draft addition to struggling for developmental minutes.
According to Bleacher Report’s Zach Buckley, Podziemski could undergo a ‘redshirt’ season with the Warriors. With so much guard talent in front of him in Golden State’s rotation, it’s unlikely the rookie will earn any significant playing time and could be destined for a year in the G-League as he continues to hone his craft.
