OAKLAND, CA - The Golden State Warriors will host Santa Cruz Warriors players Seth Curry and Mychel Thompson, brothers of Golden State Warriors guards Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson, for a Twitter takeover of the team's official account - @warriors - during the second quarter of the Warriors nationally televised game (NBA TV) versus the Phoenix Suns on Sunday, March 9, the team announced today. During the takeover, Curry (@sdotcurry) and Thompson (@MychelThompson) will offer their unique perspectives of the game as it's unfolding, while also interacting with fans who tweet or reply to @warriors on Twitter. Leading up to the event, Golden State and its official NBA D-League affiliate are also collaborating on a contest in which one fan can win tickets to see both teams play this weekend.

Throughout the 2013-14 season, the Warriors will host a player from each of the major Bay Area professional sports teams - including the Oakland Athletics, Oakland Raiders, San Francisco Giants and San Jose Sharks - to manage the @warriors Twitter account. The team's official Twitter account is a great way for fans to experience behind-the-scenes access, original content and events throughout the 2013-14 season.
