Klay Thompson is one of the most recognizable faces in the game of basketball. The Golden State Warriors shooting guard is currently helping his team against the Boston Celtics in the 2022 NBA Finals. The Warriors currently lead the NBA Finals three games to two with game six in Boston. Klay has many celebrity fans, but it looks like even he gets flustered sometimes.

A resurfaced video talks about how Klay met Michael Jordan for the first time in 1998. At that point in time, Jordan was still playing for the Bulls and gunning for his sixth NBA Championship. Klay talked about how it was surreal to meet MJ and Scottie Pippen in the stadium, along with his dad.

Klay said, “I don’t remember much from that night. I think the year was 97 or 98.. it was one of the last championships that team won together.” He continued, “I do remember the hype and hysteria that came with the Chicago Bulls. Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman, and company. I remember my dad taking us to the back, waiting in the tunnel. We were just waiting, we wanted to see Scottie and Michael so bad.”

He further said, “I don’t think I said a word, but just the fact that I could be there and meet the legend himself was so motivating for me. I was able to tell all my friends when I went to school. I will forever cherish that memory and I can always tell my peers, my future kids, that I was able to meet Michael Jordan in his prime.”
