The NBA All-Star Game this coming weekend will feature 4 players from our home team, the Golden State Warriors, for the first time, including Splash Brothers Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. Thompson will also try to defend his 3-point shooting title. Both Curry and Thompson have some connection to table-tennis. Klay Thompson played table-tennis growing up and was competitive in it with his brothers. Thompson also said in an ESPN interview when asked to say something about Stephen Curry we don’t know, he said Curry is a sore loser in ping-pong! Stephen Curry played in Chris Paul’s annual charity ping-pong event for NBA players, Topspin, and lost to Chris Paul. I wish the Splash Brothers don’t lose to anyone on the LA Clippers in anything!
