Dennis Schroder has played four games for the Golden State Warriors since joining the franchise on Dec. 15. The veteran guard has the unenviable task of trying to figure out how to slot into a rotation that boasts Stephen Curry and Draymond Green. That task has been made even harder by joining the franchise with the season in full swing.

Dennis Schroder has spent the past 10 days getting acclimated to his new surroundings in the Bay Area. The Golden State Warriors acquired the offensive-minded guard via a trade with the Brooklyn Nets on December 15.
