Amid the uncertainty the exit has unleashed, Klay Thompson recently caught the fans’ attention for a bizarre reason.

As the reigning champions’ exit sent shockwaves in the hoops world, fans have paid close attention to what the Warriors players had to say after the loss. However, after witnessing Klay Thompson’s reaction to his own stats, fans had a lot to say.

Klay Thompson begins his post-game interview with a one-word reaction

From the Dubs’ side, only Stephen Curry has performed consistently throughout the series against the Lakers. The next two big names in the Golden State lineup, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green, have not performed according to their reputation. Though some fans think that the time has come for Thompson and Green to bid farewell to Golden State, the franchise’s front office thinks that they still have the fire in them.

Though Klay Thompson addressed these concerns and said that he believes in the team’s potential going ahead, he let out a strange reaction as he sat down for the interview. The 4x-NBA champion could be seen looking at his own box score stats.

While he continued to examine the papers in front of him, Thompson blurted out, “shoot”. FadeAway Media tweeted a snippet of Klay Thompson’s response during the interview. “Klay Thompson reaction to seeing his box score stats ?shoot? LMFAOOOOOOOOO,” they captioned the tweet.

Even though Thompson said the word as a substitute for an expletive, fans are now using this tweet as an opportunity to point out that Thompson failed to perform from beyond the arc during the postseason.
