Sunday night, the Splash Brothers were reunited inside the Chase Center. Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry shared the court as members of the Golden State Warriors for the first time in over 900 days, with the Dubs earning a 96-82 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday night.
Thompson's return happened after Curry broke the NBA record for 3-pointers made for a career inside Madison Square Garden. Although Thompson wasn't there to celebrate with his Warriors teammate, Curry took something with him to make it feel like he was present.
He took Thompson's jersey and hung it in his locker.
