On March 27, Beijing time, the Brooklyn Nets pulled their opponents from the first place in the East after defeating the Miami Heat. Nets starter Seth Curry performed well in this game, becoming the best player in the rotation.
Curry played 22 minutes today and scored 17 points on 6-of-10 shooting (5-of-6 from three-point range) and is on the floor at an efficiency value of +20.
It was Curry who hit four three-pointers in the third quarter and scored 14 points in a single quarter, leading the team directly into the pocket.
After being traded to the Nets, Curry Jr. averaged 30.3 minutes per game, contributed 15.5 points, shot 49.3 percent from the field, shot 47.1 percent from three-point range, and improved compared to the previous 76ers, especially in terms of offensive efficiency.
Curry's current contract is still a year away, and his salary next season is $8.55 million, compared to Joe Harris's $18.64 million salary next season, Curry is clearly the better choice for the Nets.
If the Nets are going to renew Irving's contract with a maximum salary this summer, they have to make a certain amount of salary space, then the possibility of Joha leaving the team is becoming more and more likely. After all, with the threat of Curry Jr. on the outside, the more cost-effective option is more suitable for the current development of the Nets.
