Golden State Warriors new recruit Dennis Schroder is looking forward to sharing the court with superstar Stephen Curry after moving from Brooklyn Nets. Schroder is averaging 18.4 points and a career-high 6.6 assists in 33.6 minutes per game in the ongoing season and has played a key role in the success of the Brooklyn Nets.

“Just to be able to be around them now, especially Steph,” Schroder said Tuesday after scrimmaging with his new teammates. “He’s one of, if not the best point guard ever. Best shooter of course. Just excited to see how he works and to be a part of it.

“I’ve played with a lot of future Hall of Famers the last couple of years. Him and Draymond will make it kind of complete now.”

“Every time I’ve seen Golden State play, you get excited because just how he plays,” Schroder said. “He plays it like a video game … he’s one of the superstars who I got a lot of respect for because he doesn’t care if he scores 10, 20, 30 or 40.

“I’m really excited. I can’t say it enough.”

The Dubs head coach Steve Kerr revealed that Schroder could straight away walk into the starting five in Thursday’s match against the Memphis Grizzlies.

“We need to take some of the burden off Steph,” Kerr said. “He’s had to take on, I think, an abnormal load this year of responsibility offensively.

“What we’ve missed is another pick-and-roll player so that Steph doesn’t have to run so much pick-and-roll all game and wear himself down.”

The German is also looking forward to playing alongside Draymond Green, who has always been a competitor on the court.

“Really, really excited to play with Draymond,” Schroder said. “We got a pretty good relationship. Really looking forward to playing with another Hall of Famer on the court who was always hell when you were on the other side of it, who was talking smack, trash, just being competitive and come out of there with a win. To combine [our defense and competitiveness] now is pretty unique and special.”
