John Wall and Klay Thompson

Former NBA player John Wall has been making the headlines lately after his recent words towards Klay Thompson have gone viral. Notably, Wall was involved in a heated altercation against Thompson during a particular game between the Washington Wizards and the Golden State Warriors back in 2013, which ended with Wall being ejected.

When Wall stepped up for a layup, Thompson just destroyed him. Wall covered close on Thompson to stop an inbound pass on the next play, but he was eventually thrown off and overstated the contact a little. Wall became enraged after the no-call and started insulting Thompson. These words by Wall to Thompson have been leaked recently and are making rounds on social media.

On the contrary, Wall is currently a free agent and targets a comeback to the NBA as soon as possible. On the other hand, Thompson left his boyhood side, the Warriors to join the Dallas Mavericks during the 2024 NBA Free Agency on a 3-year deal. It remains to be seen what happens next with these two stars in their individual careers in the upcoming months.

John Wall makes an honest revelation regarding Klay Thompson

Klay Thompson was probably one of the best sharpshooters in basketball during the 2011s and went on to be a legend with the Golden State Warriors, winning multiple NBA titles. However, former NBA player John Wall made an honest revelation regarding Thompson, claiming his side, the Washington Wizards should have “took him” during the NBA Draft back then.

I think we should have took Klay, for sure, A sharpshooter, you know. He can shoot the ball like that...He was fire, bro. So, I knew [Klay Thompson] was special… Klay was a great defender at that time, too. He was a great defender, so he probably would have played the three for us, Bradley two.

On the contrary, it was probably destined for Thompson to join the Warriors and create an underlying legacy with them, winning 4 NBA titles and becoming their franchise legend in the process. However, the Warriors and Thompson parted ways recently and will be playing for the Mavs in the upcoming 2024-25 NBA season.
