Asked before Friday’s game if he’s have implored Podziemski to be more aggressive hunting shots, Kerr answered with a glowing negative. “He’s playing great. I don’t care if he scores or not. He’s in every one of our best lineups, he’s our best plus-minus guy for the year,” Golden State’s head coach said of Podziemski. “He’s really good no matter whether he’s scoring or not. I know that, especially as a rookie, he’ll have ups and downs from a scoring standpoint, and right now he’s in a down period. But he allows other guys to play well just because of his recognition of what’s happening on the floor, his cuts, his ball movement, his spacing. I’m thrilled with Brandon. As long as he keeps playing as hard as he is, he’ll be out there.” -via Clutch Points / March 22, 2024
