"With the backing track building toward the famous chorus of Wonderwall, Warriors rookie Alex Toohey rose with the crescendo-ing pop ballad, both vocally and physically. By the time the forward was ready to belt out You're my wonderwaaaaall, he had ascended the Chase Center stairs and entered Section 21, mingling with gobsmacked fans (and at least a dozen security personnel) as Steph Curry and the rest of the Warriors vets looked on with amusement from the other side of the court."
"Curry, who had delighted fans by swapping numbers with his younger brother Seth and wearing No. 31, called the event a vibe. Seth Curry, of course, wore No. 30, and knocked down dozens of shots on the court his brother has called home for years. It was, officially, the team's annual open practice, where tickets cost only $5 apiece and fans packed into Chase Center to watch their favorite players go through drills."
