Splash Brothers in Pullman: Steph Curry will attend Klay Thompson’s jersey retirement at WSU

PULLMAN – Two of the best 3-point shooters in NBA history will converge on Pullman and Washington State on Saturday.

Two-time NBA MVP Stephen Curry will be in attendance as Golden State Warriors teammate and fellow “Splash Brother” Klay Thompson has his jersey retired at halftime of the Cougars’ game against Oregon State, Janie McCauley of the Associated Press reported Tuesday prior to Golden State’s game against Dallas.

“I heard it’s pretty cool there,” Curry told McCauley, a Washington State graduate who covers professional and college sports for the AP in the Bay Area. “Go Cougs.”

Curry, a global hoops icon who’s considered by many to be the greatest shooter in the history of the game, has teamed up with Thompson to win three NBA championships.
