Warriors' Brandin Podziemski leaves Hawks game after brutal shot to face

Today at 12:15 AM

Just hours after the news dropped that De’Anthony Melton will miss the rest of the season and undergo knee surgery, the Warriors’ backcourt depth took another hit.

During Wednesday night’s game against the Atlanta Hawks, second year guard Brandin Podziemski got hit hard in the face while attempting to get a rebound and stayed down on the floor for a minute. After he finally was able to get up to his feet, Podziemski went back to the Golden State locker room.

This is especially troubling to see for Podziemski, who broke his nose during the preseason and recently stopped wearing a protective face mask to keep it in tact. A blow like this so soon after the injury is not a good sign for the promising young guard.

This story will be updated.
