After notching a fourth-straight win against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday, Stephen Curry and the Warriors prepare for another Western Conference challenge against the Dallas Mavericks tonight.
His brother, Seth Curry, is now an established starter under head coach Rick Carlisle — a much different look than he's had during his first few years in the NBA.

“That situation never gets old for me,” Stephen said of Seth, according to Anthony Slater of the San Jose Mercury News. “Even with him starting or not, or how many minutes he plays, just him being in the building. It's so surreal to play against your brother in the NBA.”
“I'll appreciate every moment I could get to go through that experience. Tomorrow will be another opportunity to do that and have some family coming to town to watch. It's just a really cool moment for the whole fam.”
After signing a two-year, $5.9 million contract with the Mavericks in the offseason — Seth made the most of his minutes and opportunities, thanks to a myriad of injuries that plagued the team early in the season. The three-year pro has had a career-year, even shooting better from the field and the three-point line than his two-time MVP brother.
“There's a little added bonus with him doing what he's doing and showing exactly who Seth Curry is as a basketball player,” added Steph. “It's been fun to watch him play at that level and gotta figure out how to slow him down.”
The Curry brothers couldn't be at more opposite extremes of the coin, with Stephen regaining his shooting touch in the last two games, shooting a blistering 13-of-20 (65 percent) from deep, while Seth has struggled, failing to reach double-digits scoring in four of the last five games.
