He posted to his Instagram story that he was casually peddling across the Bay in his kayak to get to practice at the Chase Center.

Thompson has told stories about jumping in the cold waters of the San Francisco Bay before, making him a "Splash Brother" on and off the court.

In the same Instagram story, Thompson posted a video of him shooting (and making) 12 3-pointers in a row.

A good sign for the injured guard, who has been hard at work recovering from a torn Achilles.
