Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson are no longer colleagues in the NBA for the first time since 2011. Thompson’s departure from the Golden State Warriors as Luka Doncic’s new running partner in Dallas was the formalization of the Splash Brothers’ separation. The Mavericks have inked a three-year, $80 million contract with Thompson, and the Warriors will undoubtedly struggle to fill the void left by the four-time champion.
However, LeBron James could intervene and serve as a mediator in this situation. James is confident that he has identified the ideal replacement to restore Curry’s satisfaction in advance of the Summer Olympics in Paris. Currently, the Los Angeles Lakers superstar is serving as Curry’s comrade with Team USA.
The ‘new Splash Brother’ is…
I appreciate your attention.
The Team USA camp is currently experiencing a high level of confidence and positivity as a result of their convincing exhibition victory over Serbia on Wednesday. In the 26-point victory in Abu Dhabi, Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo made three 3-pointers, which was an uncharacteristic performance for him. James was enthusiastic about the performance.
James filmed himself triumphantly trotting back to the locker room, where he referred to Adebayo as “the new Splash Brother” and bestowed him with a new nickname: “Bam Bam Splash.”James scored 11 points in the exhibition victory, while Adebayo, who is currently courting Las Vegas Aces superstar A’ja Wilson, scored 17, including three of Team USA’s 16 three-pointers. In recent years, Wilson has progressively incorporated a three-point shot into her repertoire, and it is possible that Adebayo has been motivated to do the same.
However, regardless of the circumstances, James and Curry were undoubtedly observing the performance from afar, and Bam has the potential to emerge as Team USA’s “secret weapon” in Paris.
