Stephen Curry: 'It does suck losing Klay Thompson'
Malika Andrews: Steph Curry addresses Klay Thompson’s departure from GSW: “We would have loved to maintain the core and finish out together …having Klay head on to Dallas — it’s tough. It’s something I never imagined would be a reality, but you want him to be happy.” New for @SportsCenter: pic.twitter.com/Fay0XckCxo

Yahoo Sports: “Not having Klay, man, it still really hasn’t sunk in.” @StephenCurry30 talks with @VinceGoodwill about what it’ll be like not having Klay Thompson on GSW next season. -via Twitter / July 8, 2024
Curry said it “sucks” not to have Thompson as his teammate anymore, noting he “desperately” wanted him back in a Warriors uniform this season. But he held equal respect and understanding that Thompson needed a fresh start. Curry said his biggest desire is for Thompson to regain the joy he played with for so much of his career. “It’s something that I never imagined would be a reality, but we want him to be happy,” Curry said. -via ESPN / July 8, 2024
“I mean obviously defining a dynasty can take a lot of different looks,” Curry said in an interview with ESPN’s Malika Andrews. “People thought this was over in 2019 … but 2022 was an amazing championship because we defied the odds … That’s 11 years of almost 12 years of championship relevancy built around a certain core. -via ESPN / July 8, 2024
“I don’t think [it will be replicated] just because it’s very hard to keep things together in this league. A lot more player movement. Me, Klay and Draymond, we complemented each other so well for so long. We all brought something different to the table, so we’ll see. Records are meant to be broken. Dynasties come all different shapes inside of us, so we’ll see.” -via ESPN / July 8, 2024
