Steph Curry’s pregame field goal kick was unintentionally ruined by Klay Thompson

Klay just wanted to shoot.

If there is one thing we know about Klay Thompson, it’s that he likes to shoot the basketball. He’s proven it during his NBA career. He really likes to shoot.

Zach Lowe of ESPN once detailed just how much Thompson likes to shoot:

Lacob once asked Thompson what he did for fun. Thompson simply responded, “I like to shoot.” Lacob explained that he meant what Thompson did off the floor. Thompson shrugged and repeated himself: “I like to shoot.”

Knowing how much he likes to shoot, it should come as no surprise that this happened.

Stephen Curry was setting up a pregame field goal attempt during warmups. Thompson just happened to drift into the area. He didn’t see Curry, waiting to kick, but he did see a ball. So he shot it. It’s what he does.

Fortunately, there was a ball boy armed and ready nearby. Steph got to kick his attempt. Klay got to shoot. Everyone was happy.
