Golden State Warriors breakout star Jordan Poole has shared the reason why Klay Thompson is loved by everyone around him and his fans.
Ahead of Klay Thompson's highly-anticipated return, his Warriors co-star Jordan Pool has talked about the one thing that makes him unique.
According to Poole, Thompson is not like other attention-seeking NBA stars and would just do unexpected stuff without the intension of going viral or whatnot.
“He is exactly who he is. He is himself. He does not try to be anyone else,” Poole said via NBC Sports.”Klay will go and shoot, and he will hit 14 3s,” Poole explained. “And he will say whatever he has to say, and then you will catch him a couple days later on his boat on [Instagram] Live, or chilling with his dog.”
“Klay came to practice with a captain hat on. He's doing it not because he knows that people are going to post it and it is going to get on Instagram and it's going to go viral. He's wearing a captain hat because he had it in the closet and felt like wearing it today. You have to appreciate that. The confidence that you have in yourself. The confidence you have in your personality, it is just awesome to see,” he continued.
Thompson had recently hinted that he is “very close” to making his Warriors return and he wants to make it happen during a home game as he believes the Dubs fans who waited for him truly “deserve it.”
