NBA star Klay Thompson will reportedly be College GameDay’s celebrity guest picker

For the first time ever College GameDay will visit Pullman, Washington, for the Cougars game against Oregon, and ESPN announcer Dave Pasch may have let the cat out of the bag as to who will be the celebrity guest picker.

According to Pasch, former Washington State basketball standout and Golden State Warriors star Klay Thompson will be the guest picker. While at Washington State from 2008-11, Thompson became the fastest player in program history to 1,000 points, scored a program-high 733 points his junior year and is the Cougars third all-time leading scorer.

The Warriors drafted Thompson with the No. 11 pick overall in the 2011 NBA Draft. The three-time NBA champion and four-time all-star has had a brilliant career with the Warriors thus far.

I believe Dave Pasch said Klay Thompson will be the GameDay picker on Saturday in Pullman.
