SAN FRANCISCO — For years, a younger brother had balked at his older sibling’s dream.

As he embarked upon his Hall of Fame career, Steph Curry had always wanted to team up with Seth, two years his junior.

And for the better part of a decade, Seth, 35, had pushed back.

“I’ve said a few times in the past that I don’t want to be on the same team, that I want to create my own path,” Seth Curry said during his introductory press conference on Thursday afternoon, later adding. “But I’m comfortable being here now, and definitely everybody is excited, and I’m excited.”

But as their careers wind down, he could no longer pass up the opportunity. And aside from just the two brothers, the entire extended Curry family was thrilled by the development.

Well, maybe everybody but former NBA guard Dell Curry.

“Instead of watching multiple games, it should be easier to watch just one game,” Seth Curry said. “Everybody’s excited about it, except maybe my dad, who didn’t want to see me leave Charlotte.”

He joined the team as its third and final free-agent signing — Al Horford and De’Anthony Melton being the other two — made after the Warriors finalized a two-year, $46.5 million contract with restricted free agent Jonathan Kuminga.

Seth Curry signed a minimum contract. Although he may not be the flamethrower that his older brother is, the younger Curry is still one of the top snipers in the league.

The 6-foot-1 guard played in 68 games for his hometown Charlotte Hornets last season, and led the league with a 45.6% accuracy rate from behind the 3-point line.

“Seth is a really good player in his own right,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. “he’s one of the best shooters in the league, and he’s going to help us win some games this year.”

That level of shooting was no fluke: Over the course of an 11-year NBA career, one that has seen him shoot 43.3% from 3-point distance and average exactly 10 points per game, Seth Curry has made at least 40% of his triples in eight different seasons.

The younger Curry is expected to be a marksman that the Warriors often lacked behind Steph Curry and Buddy Hield last season, an issue that became even more evident in the playoffs once Curry went out with a pulled hamstring in the second round.

Getting familiar with the playbook will not be a problem.

“Honestly, I probably watched 95% of Warriors games for the last 16 years,” Seth Curry said. “I know their style, and I know how they play.”

Seth will likely back up third-year guard Brandin Podziemski and compete with Hield and eventually Melton — who will miss the start of the season while rehabbing from ACL surgery — for minutes in the backcourt.

Kerr noted that Seth did not scrimmage with the team on Thursday as he ramps up his conditioning and familiarity with the rest of the team.

“It’s a little weird,” Seth said about guarding Steph in half-court drills. “But it’s practice, and we’re trying to prepare each other for the games.”

But he will have no issue when it comes to finding his way around San Francisco.

“The Bay, I’ve got a lot of love for here, and I’ve felt like it was one of my homes, with Steph being here for so long,” Seth said. “It’s good to be here.”
