Klay Thompson is one of the most beloved NBA players in the world. While Thompson has been part of the Warriors for his entire career, Klay is loved by many fans, despite which teams they support. One of the reasons fans love Klay is because of his sense of humor. Klay always seems like he is trying to have fun and enjoy life. And Thompson’s activities during the press conference last night are a great example of that.
After the Los Angeles Lakers lost to the Golden State Warriors, Klay Thompson spoke to the media in his post-game press conference. During the press conference, Thompson could be seen folding a paper airplane. The reporters asked him about the plane, and he compared it to an F-16. As the press conference wrapped up, Klay threw the airplane in the air but was shocked to see it make a U-turn and not go far.

“This is like an F-16. Just fierce in the sky so I’m going to launch it when we’re done, see if I can clear that gate again. Love aircrafts. Nah, I love watercrafts more tho to be honest.”
Klay Thompson made a miraculous return to the NBA this season, returning to the court after 2 and a half years on the sidelines due to consecutive major injuries. Thompson has flown under the radar, as he is still finding his groove right now. But he has shown from time to time that he is still one of the most dangerous offensive players in the entire league. The Warriors will hope he gets better during the playoffs.
Thompson and the Warriors are chasing a 4th NBA championship for the dynasty. Winning a 4th title together will make Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson arguably the greatest trio in the history of the NBA, and solidify the Warriors as one of the best dynasties ever.
