The target was an athletic reporter named Marcus Thompson. His phone started ringing just in the middle of the conference. In response, Curry singled him out for his behavior in the middle of the conversation. In his statement, he stated:
“Marcus Thompson, unbelievable, I’m calling you out,” Curry replied. “It’s like when you’re at church and the pastor’s giving a sermon, and you over there with your phone.” A few minutes later, Thompson apologized for what had happened. Curry immediately broke into tears, laughing.
