With the 11th pick of 2011 nba draft, The Golden State Warriors select Klay Thompson

Damn it’s really real

Gonna be sobbing seeing Klay and Steph stand side by side with different jerseys on
sksxo
Gonna miss him so much 🥲🥲
Acrobatic-Year-126
Absolutely deserved

Well deserved. I’m gonna miss seeing boat captain Klay. Maybe he’ll take up horse riding?
Cul_what
Very deserved that tribute video boutta hit so hard
cuteee_Sophia
Mad respect. He left his mark on the game. Epic send-off coming
spotty15
Well earned. Deserved to be NBA75 too
the_irish_potatoes
I can’t remember the last time a jersey was retired while the player was still active. Well-deserved, to say the least.

Lakers wouldn’t dare write something this long about a former player /s
RVAIsTheGreatest
The way it’s ended is sad but it doesn’t obviously erase what he did and the fact the Warriors were the Warriors in large part because of him.

When he comes back to the bay but as a visitor🥲
Since the All Star festivities is gonna be here in SF, I wanna see the Splash Brothers participate in some way.
Hovi_Bryant
Without question. One of the GOAT Warriors.

End of an era. I was at the 37 points in a quarter game and it might have been the most fun sporting event of my life. We just went home giggling.
I still think his 60 points on something like 13 dribbles total is the most ‘wait, *what?*’ moment of his Warriors career… and yet it’s completely indicative of Klay and the role he played on the Ws.

I would be shocked if they didn’t retire his number. He’s earned that and then some. Maybe even a statue

No doubt he gets his number retired. But I hate reading stuff that is so poorly written:
“…he will join a host of Warriors immortals, including those who helped shape this recent dynasty— himself included.”
He will join…himself?
IsThisMe8
It finally hit me that he’s gone and that’s sad.

Rightfully so

Absolutely well-deserved! Klay Thompson has been a cornerstone of the Warriors’ dynasty, and his contributions on both ends of the floor are legendary. From his record-breaking 37-point quarter to his clutch performances in the playoffs, Klay’s No. 11 will forever be a symbol of excellence and dedication. Thank you, Klay, for all the unforgettable moments and for embodying the heart and soul of the Warriors. 🏀💙💛 #DubNation

This next season will be weird to see him in another jersey. A Mavs jersey… didn’t had that on my bingo card
Crock_Durty
There should be statues of all 3 of them

I’m old. Klay changing teams is hitting me harder than any player changing teams that weren’t on a team I cared about. Those Warriors teams were the best team basketball I’ve seen played and Klay was a huge part of that. His ego’s been getting to him lately but Klay being ok with playing great defense and hitting open shots when the team needed him to was a huge reason he has 4 titles and ‘better’ players won’t ever get 1.

The big three + andre iggy should be retired
br0wnb0y
that’s well deserved and class on the team’s part.
Hope both do better next year.

His jersey is effectively retired as no one will wear 11 again unless he comes back.

obviously yes, but this is so millennial. ‘wah’ ‘wah’ ‘wah’ = bottle

So, speaking of
Who’s changing numbers, Klay or Kyrie?
AVeryStinkyFish
Did we ever see what the Warriors get in return?

Put it first in the laundry since he’s washed 🧺

Steph Curry needs to demand a trade. Boy gonna waste his last few years with a 11th seed team.
Oaty_McOatface
It’s a given the big 3 and KD all are getting their numbers retired.
TheSalmonRoll
Should be noted that in the 78 year history of the Warriors only six players have had their jersey numbers retired (with a seventh being Bill Russell). That’s remarkably few for one of the oldest teams in the league and that number is set to almost double within the near future.

I really thought draymond would be gone before klay

Klay is Pippen of the Warriors. Gonna stay petty forever
devilmaskrascal
I’m a Mavs fan and happy to have Klay but at the same time the gravity of the moment is not lost on me. This is the end of one of the greatest trios to ever do it, the greatest shooting backcourt in NBA history and the end of an era.

I hope they give him a toaster with his number laser etched on
