The Golden State Warriors era of the “Splash Brothers” is officially over. After news broke of Klay Thompson signing a three-year, $50 million deal with the Dallas Mavericks, Steph Curry took to social media to share a heartfelt message for his longtime teammate.
“Gonna miss you @klaythompson,” Curry wrote on his Instagram story. “Even though we won’t finish the journey together, what we did will never be done again.”
Curry’s message acknowledged the bittersweet nature of Thompson’s departure. The duo, along with Draymond Green, were the core of the Warriors’ dynasty, winning four NBA championships together from 2014 to 2022. Their revolutionary style of play, with Curry and Thompson raining down threes, changed the game itself.
“Couldn’t have imagined a better run with you and @money23green,” Curry continued. “Changed the whole Bay Area. Changed the way the game is played. Killa Klay at the center of it all. Thank you for everything bro. Go enjoy playing basketball and doing what you do. Splash Bros 4 life my guy.”
The message highlights the deep bond between the two players, forged through years of success and adversity. Curry acknowledges Thompson’s immense contribution to the Warriors’ legacy while wishing him well in the next chapter of his career.
With Thompson joining Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving in Dallas, the NBA landscape is set for a tҺrilling season. But for Warriors fans, the sight of Curry and Thompson on the same court will be a memory to cherish. The “Splash Brothers” may be suiting up for different teams, but their impact on the game will forever be linked.
