Steph Curry wears Klay Thompson’s shoes in Christmas Day game against the Mavericks originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
Since parting ways with Under Armor in November, sneaker free agent Steph Curry has given a lot of thought to the shoes he wears when he arrives at the arena, when he warms up and when he participates in games.

And Christmas Day was no different for the Warriors superstar.
After arriving in Kobe Bryant’s “Yellow Toe” player edition of Allen Iverson’s Reebok Question kicks and warming up in his original 2010 Nike Christmas sneakers, Curry wore Klay Thompson’s KT11 shoes during the game itself.
Curry and Thompson spent 13 years and 11 seasons as Warriors teammates before the latter asked out and was traded to the Mavericks after the 2023-24 NBA season.
Even though they no longer share the same backcourt, the love between the Splash Brothers remains unbreakable.
Before Thursday’s game, Curry and Thompson shared a quick hug during their respective pregame warmup routines.
There’s rhyme and reason behind just about everything Curry does, and Thursday’s gesture was clearly a tribute to his former running mate and lifelong friend.
