Klay Thompson and Steph Curry undefeated as Warriors sideline analysts

Each time either Stephen Curry or Klay Thompson, have appeared as the Golden State Warrior’s broadcast sideline reporter, the team has registered a victory.

Back in late November, Klay Thompson stepped in front of the microphone, and the Warriors sealed a victory after losing their previous three consecutive games. Thompson brought his quirky attitude to the broadcast, and it followed with the win in favor of Golden State amid their struggling season.

Now, Golden State was on a season-worst 10-game losing streak, to end it, the Warriors turned to the other half of the “Splash Brothers” duo. Stephen Curry joined the Golden State broadcast in the third quarter against the Orlando Magic, and similar to Thompson, the Warriors handled business with their teammate on the call.

Behind an impressive night from rookie Jordan Poole, and a closing effort from D’Angelo Russell, the Warriors snapped their losing streak with a 109-95 win against the Orlando Magic.

Curry stayed on the call during the third quarter against Orlando, and Golden State had their highest-scoring period of the night. Golden State shot 13-of-20 from the field to outscore the Magic, 29-19 in the third quarter with Curry watching. Curry was proud of his team’s effort while he was making his NBC Sports Bay Area broadcast debut.

Before the quarter ended, Poole knocked down a buzzer-beating three-pointer, and Curry signed off with a winning guarantee for his game prediction.

While Golden State has only won 10-games this season, 20% of their victories have come with either Curry or Thompson on the call. While both have missed an extended amount of time, a silver lining to their injuries has been their ability to serve as announcers for games.

Although the Warriors have won each game with the “Splash Brothers” involved in the broadcast, Golden State fans everywhere would rather have either in-game action. However, with both injured, a dose of Curry and Thompson on the broadcast might be the next best thing.
