Brandin Podziemski DMs FlightReacts to set up 1v1 game for his stream

Golden State Warriors young guard Brandin Podziemski has had a pretty busy summer. Added to his commitments with the Select Team and the Warriors in the 2024 NBA Summer League, he is now trying to face challenges outside the association.

The No. 19 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft sent a message to famous YouTuber 'FlightReacts', a well-known Stephen Curry and Warriors fan. The young guard sent an Instagram DM, challenging him to a one-on-one game for his stream.

"Yooooooo chat said we need the 1v1 let's set it up for the stream!!!!" a message shared on X, formerly known as Twitter, reads.

FlightReacts has been around for a couple of years now, gaining a lot of fame thanks to his reactions to the Golden State Warriors games and Stephen Curry's performances. He's gone viral more than once and popularized the phrase 'so inspirational' within the NBA world.

Podziemski has started his journey as a streamer and seems to be taking advantage of his NBA fame. The tweet mentions that Flight is yet to respond to the challenge, but one would imagine it wouldn't take long to get an answer.
