Within minutes, reactions flooded social media with fans jokingly calling out the older Curry for “betraying” his brother.
One viral comment from @1367888a1 read,
“😂 Steph the fakest brother ever. I’m the star of the team—no way I’m letting a mf cut my brother.”
Of course, some fans were quick to remind everyone that Steph doesn’t actually control roster decisions. As @Bullet237 pointed out,
“Like he has control over this.”

Still, it didn’t stop NBA fans from running wild with memes and jokes. The idea of Steph watching his own brother get waived by his team sparked a mix of laughter and disbelief across X.
Seth remains one of the league’s respected shooters, known for his efficiency and smart playmaking. But at 34, his next move will depend on whether another team sees value in his veteran experience.
For NBA fans, though, this was about the drama. Brother vs. business. Family vs. franchise. And while everyone knows Steph had nothing to do with the decision, that didn’t stop the internet from giving him the new title of “the fakest brother ever.” In short—NBA fans love chaos, and this was prime entertainment.

While social media had its fun roasting Steph Curry over Seth’s release, many NBA fans took a moment to remember why the older Curry became one of the most influential players in basketball history.

User @Num30onTop reminded everyone of the prime version of Curry, posting,
“2016 Steph Curry gave us the only unanimous MVP & the only player to average 30 PPG with 50/40/90 splits.”

It was the perfect reminder that Steph’s peak wasn’t just dominant—it changed how the game is played.
Others chimed in with admiration. @jvs3ph_ wrote,
“He be one of the best,”

while @LBJgoat_talk couldn’t resist adding a playful jab:
“What happened in the Fin… nvm.”
A 2016 season that NBA fans and Warriors fans won’t soon forget. Curry let loose his three-point prowess and made it into a weapon that teams still try to copy today. He wasn’t the tallest, strongest, or fastest, but his precision and confidence made him unstoppable.
Because for all the jokes, the truth is simple—Steph Curry’s impact didn’t fade with time. It’s still felt every time a player pulls up from half-court and believes they can hit it too.
