2026–27 Season performance
The available 2026–27 regular-season snapshot covers eight games: 15.8 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game, with 39.2% three-point shooting. It does not yet include November 9 against New Orleans. Sustaining both scoring and connective play is the next test of his backcourt role.
Updated 2026-11-10Career background
Podziemski began college at Illinois, transferred to Santa Clara and was selected 19th by Golden State in 2023. Across that route into the NBA, rebounding and passing accompanied his scoring in the backcourt. His 74 rookie appearances provided a substantial foundation beyond a handful of high-scoring games.
In 2025–26, he played 82 games and averaged 13.8 points, 5.1 rebounds and 3.7 assists. Availability and production beyond points help define a backcourt role that finishes possessions while also extending and connecting them.
