Stephen Curry Honors Klay Thompson at All-Star Weekend by Wearing Anta KT 11s

Curry used his current sneaker free agency to spotlight Thompson's newly announced Anta lifetime deal.

Overview

  • Curry laced up Thompson’s KT 11 player editions during All-Star Weekend, telling reporter Nick DePaula the gesture was “a celebration of Klay’s ANTA Lifetime Deal,” despite being ruled out of the game due to injury.
  • He arrived on the red carpet in the Fragment x Union x Air Jordan 1 and then switched into Thompson’s Anta signature model inside the arena.
  • The special KT 11s featured silver and purple glitter with chrome accents, championship years etched on the heel counter, and a nod to Thompson’s 37-point quarter stamped on the back.
  • Thompson acknowledged the tribute on Instagram, posting “What a swell guy! Respect.”
  • Anta awarded Thompson a lifetime endorsement after a 12-year partnership that produced more than 10 million pairs sold across 11 signature models.
