Al Horford Sees 'Terrifying' Curry Effect as Early Warriors Chemistry Emerges

Early preseason minutes suggest a clean CurryHorford fit built on spacing and IQ.

Overview

  • Horford said Curry terrifies defenses with his constant movement and vowed to capitalize on that advantage.
  • Curry described their give-and-go actions as unspoken chemistry and praised Horford as a high-IQ, championship-caliber fit across lineups.
  • In the preseason opener against the Lakers, Horford posted three blocks in 14 minutes, signaling immediate two-way impact.
  • Horford emphasized making the game easier for Curry by delivering the ball, setting solid screens and keeping the offense in rhythm.
  • Coach Steve Kerr noted poor spacing with a non-shooting trio of Jimmy Butler, Jonathan Kuminga and Draymond Green, while Horford’s presence is expected to shape rotations and likely move Quinten Post into a reserve role.
