Klay Thompson Looks Uncomfortable As A Fan Follows Him In New York City Without Security

Klay Thompson's time in New York City appeared to be marked by minor discomfort, as a fan recently followed the Mavericks guard to his hotel while he walked about without security.

Klay Thompson has had a prominent presence on social media this offseason. From his cameos in Megan Thee Stallion’s videos to his training and workout clips, Thompson has garnered considerable attention.

Unfortunately, not all of this attention is welcome, especially in the life of a celebrity. This became evident when a fan spotted the Dallas Mavericks guard in New York City without a security detail.

While a short interaction with fans on the street is inevitable, Thompson looked visibly uncomfortable as the fan continued to talk to him, even going as far as to follow him to his hotel.

The fan repeatedly spoke about how he has faith in Thompson’s ability to perform with the Mavericks in the upcoming season. The guard nodded as a gesture of acknowledgement, but the individual continued to record the video, despite saying, “I respect people’s privacy out here.”

After the initial interaction, the ideal approach would have been to go about one’s day. Instead, the fan trailed Thompson from a distance while shooting videos so that the guard wouldn’t notice him.

In doing so, the individual acquired footage of Thompson walking through the park and through the streets of the city as well.

By the end of the video, the fan noted how effectively Thompson’s glasses concealed his identity, which garnered very little public attention. As Thompson entered the hotel lobby, the fan almost followed him in as well, but he stopped at the entrance.

The four-time NBA champion had every reason to feel uncomfortable with this event. Although there was no direct threat to his safety, the constant invasion of privacy certainly set off some alarms.

Regardless of this event, the Mavericks guard will remain laser-focused on improving for the upcoming season. Coming off an untimely end to their postseason campaign, Dallas will look to bounce back stronger.

The guard had an inconsistent season last year. As Thompson’s defensive prowess has started to wane, his offensive output has also taken a bit of a hit.

He recorded an average of 14.0 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game on shooting splits of 41.2% from the field and 39.1% from three-point range. While solid for a role player, these numbers fall short of expectations for someone of Thompson’s caliber.

Heading into next season, the Mavs have put together one of the most balanced rosters in the NBA. With key players like Kyrie Irving being sidelined with injury, Thompson’s experience and leadership will be vital to anchoring the Mavericks’ backcourt, especially in high-pressure scenarios.
