When Klay Thompson and Marcus Capers arrived in Pullman, Wash., as college freshmen in the fall of 2008, both wanted to wear No. 1.
So they played one-on-one for it. In a game to 11, Capers went up 10-4 before getting a cramp. Thompson got the ball, went on a 5-0 run and, on the final possession, recovered a loose ball in the corner and hit a turnaround, fadeaway jumper for the win.
Error 0:
“Bro,” Capers said to his new teammate, “Why are you at Washington State?’”
Saturday night, Washington State will retire Thompson’s No.
