There is something unusual about the Oregon State Men's Basketball roster. The last name Thompson appears three times.
The No. 1 jersey is worn by Stephen Thompson Jr., better known as Stevie, a senior guard.
No. 5 belongs to Ethan Thompson, a sophomore guard and Stevie's younger brother.
And Assistant Coach Stephen Thompson, in his fifth year at Oregon State, is their father.
The fact that the Thompson family ended up at Oregon State is no coincidence. It's something Coach Thompson wished for ever since his boys took up the sport he played and loves.
