Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry enjoyed himself while watching his teammate Klay Thompson‘s historic performance from 2013.
Just over a week now since NBA has suspended its league, players have been looking at different ways to bide their time. While the likes of Giannis Antetokounmpo and a few others have been indulging themselves with video games, Curry relaxed with a bit of throwback.
On Wednesday, Curry tweeted saying his”soul smiled” while watching Thompson’s 60-point game.

During a conference call with local reporters, Warriors general manager Bob Myers talked abouthow the suspension could affect Thompson’s rehabilitation.
“Yes, it’s hard. Privately, by himself. Maybe with one of our trainers individually at his house. Even my own hip surgery recovery, anything you can do without interacting with somebody. … If you don’t have your own gym (in your house), there’s not really anywhere to go. Most guys don’t have a basketball gym in their house. They might have a weight room,” Myers said as per The Athletic.
