Steph invokes famous meme in describing Klay's return

Share

Epic. Historical. Emotional. Inspiring

Those are the words Juan Toscano-Anderson, James Wiseman, Steve Kerr and Steph Curry used to describe what Klay Thompson's comeback will be like with the Warriors.

And yes, Steph poked fun at the famous meme in choosing to call it "inspiring."

"Of course I would use that word," Curry said while laughing.

The meme was made famous by the YouTuber Flight, who often would share Steph highlights while saying "Look at Curry man ... so inspirational." (Warning: NSFW).

The phrase even made it on a Chicago Bulls broadcast last season.

Inspiring, emotional or whatever word you might choose, Klay's return will be one of the most anticipated Bay Area events of all time.

After over two and a half years between games, there's reportedly optimism Thompson could take the court Sunday vs. the Cleveland Cavaliers for the first time since June 13, 2019, when he tore his ACL during Game 6 of the NBA Finals against the Toronto Raptors.

Thompson himself couldn't help but think about what it will be like as well.

"When we're at full strength, full squad on that court again ... special," Thompson said.

Couldn't have said it better ourselves, Klay.
