Zaza Pachulia gives Klay Thompson framed newspaper: 'Hell freezes over; Pachulia outscores Thompson'

It's definitely not the norm for Golden State Warriors center Zaza Pachulia to outscore Klay Thompson. Pachulia thought the moment should be commemorated.



At Friday's practice, Pachulia brought Thompson a framed San Francisco Chronicle newspaper headlined, "Hell freezes over; Pachulia outscores Thompson" along with the printed box score.



If only we could see the look on Thompson's face when Pachulia gave it to him.



Although Pachulia did outscore the Splash Brother during Game 3 of the Warriors' series against the Utah Jazz, let's just say it wasn't because he went off for a crazy night himself. It was by one point.



Pachulia knocked down seven points on Saturday in the 102-91 victory. Thompson dropped six, hence what makes this gesture so funny.



It's probably a good thing Pachulia got the newspaper framed when he did, though. As proven last postseason, this is when Thompson really starts to do his thing.
