The five-time All-Star played a crucial role in the Warriors’ fourth championship in eight years. The trio of Klay, Stephen Curry, and Draymond Green don’t seem to lose when they play together. The Warriors haven’t lost a single series in which the three of them have played every game. This ridiculous stat just goes on to show the brilliance of the three.

Recently, Klay Thompson posted a video of himself enjoying the off-season. The four-time champion can be seen dancing and taking a dive off a boat with the caption, “I’m gonna miss mi hermanos Leandro Barbosa and Nemanja Bjelica“.

Leandro Barbosa, a former player who won a championship with the Golden State Warriors, had been a player mentor coach for the franchise since 2020. After winning the championship, it was announced that he would be taking up the role of an assistant coach with the Sacramento Kings.

Meanwhile, Bjelica was a part of the roster last season and averaged 2.9 points in 10 minutes/game in the playoffs. However, he announced that he would be playing in the Turkish league for the upcoming season. Thompson had a close relationship with both of them and that’s the reason he gave them a shout-out.

The Warriors have made quite a few roster changes in the offseason. Many key role players have left, such as Gary Payton II, Otto Porter Jr., etc. However, they have managed to bring in replacements and there is the usual excitement in the air just a few weeks before the season starts.

NBA fans on Twitter reacted to Thompson’s goodbye video, and they were a little jealous of the superstar’s lifestyle.
