Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has spent most of his career playing alongside fellow sharpshooter Klay Thompson. With Thompson now on the Dallas Mavericks, Curry looks to celebrate his former teammate when their teams meet this season. According to him, it’s war after that.
“Through training camps and practices, we played against each other on opposite teams,” Curry told ESPN. “But nothing like an actual competitive NBA game. So they’ll have the ceremony … and I’m going to be fully engaged and present and making sure you celebrate him the way he’s supposed to.

Warriors forward Draymond Green was a bit more literal in his prediction for how the matchup will go down.
“I’m going to run through his chest,” Green said. “Because I used to run through my older brother’s chest when we played. There’s always this public disdain over me and [LeBron James‘] brotherhood. I try to kill him [on the court] more than anybody. I take him out. And vice versa. That’s what it is. I’m more apt to run through his chest than Kyrie [Irving].”
The Golden State Warriors will host the Dallas Mavericks on Nov. 12. According to those who will impact that game the most, it should be a competitive battle.
