Article is [here](https://www.gq.com/story/nba-chess-club) and it’s such a great read! It’s not just about the Warriors, there are a ton of other NBA players who are big into chess highlighted in it, eg Porzinigis, Luka, De’Anthony Melton, etc.

Nice piece! I wonder what Klay and Moody’s Chess.com ratings are.
There’s one small error in the article: Magnus Carlsen is not the youngest grandmaster in history; that distinction belongs to current American junior player Abhimanyu Mishra.
Draymond and Klay’s relationship is hilarious to me. Seems like Dray is talking shit to Klay *non-stop* lmao. It’s like they’re like brothers, where Steph is the oldest, and the two of them have a strong positive connection with him and look up to him. Then when it comes to the two of them, they have a sibling-like teasing relationship where they fuck with each other all the time (esp one way) but love each other nonetheless.
