‘He’s a Killer’: Klay Thompson Game 2 Masterpiece vs. Lakers Draws Praise from Former Warriors Teammate

Klay Thompson

Obviously, Klay Thompson is not the same dynamic player he was before his ACL and Achilles injuries. However, he still remains an elite shooter for the Golden State Warriors and next to Stephen Curry, he is probably the second greatest shooter in NBA history.

Some of the shots Klay is able to make just leave you shaking your head, and he had plenty of these in the Warriors’ Game 2 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday night.

This prompted one of his old teammates to say what all of us were thinking on Klay Thompson performance.

“When Klay gets out there and on that floor, he’s a killer,” former Warriors forward Juan Toscano-Anderson said on NBC Sports Bay Area. “And that’s one thing I love about Klay. I mean, you a four-time champ and you still feel like you have something to prove to everybody. I’m looking forward to Klay remaining hot because he gonna come out with that same intensity, that same aggressiveness and like [Moses] Moody said, shooters shoot. I’m looking forward to seeing Klay knock down more shots.”

The Lakers really had no answers for Thompson in Game 2, as he went for 30 points on 11-for-18 shooting, including 8 of 11 shooting from three-point range.

This was yet another strong showing for Klay in this series, as he dropped 25 points and six made threes on the Lakers’ heads in Game 1.
