The Golden State Warriors players, Stephen Curry and Kristaps Porzingis, shared limited time on the court during Sunday’s loss to Houston, playing just nine minutes together, in part because Porzingis fouled out after 23 minutes.

As Danny Emerman of The San Francisco Standard notes, building chemistry between the two will be important with Porzingis approaching free agency.

“I thought we have a lot more to prove out there,” Curry said. “I know he was in foul trouble all night. But there were a couple possessions – they tried to blitz me, get somebody in the pocket, KP’s spacing the floor, the defense has to make a decision. So, more of those reps will be great, not just for me and him, but for all of us to continue to build chemistry.”

Sunday also marked a personal milestone, as Curry and his younger brother Seth Curry played together for the first time this season after both dealt with injuries, per Nick Friedell of The Athletic.

Steph called the moment “special,” noting it was their first time sharing the court since high school.

“It’s a dream come true,” Seth said. “We’ve played against each other for a while now. For us to be on the same floor together as teammates was a different dynamic, and I’m sure everybody was watching on the East Coast – (our mother) was over there sneaking pictures when we were both in the hall trying to get loose. She was really excited.”
