Golden State Warriors sniper Klay Thompson rips Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. on Thursday night while talking about the team’s latest NBA championship.
Thompson won his fourth NBA title as the Golden State surpassed the Boston Celtics in Game 6, 103-90 of the NBA Finals. Thompson spent a cold shooting night, but he contributed 12 points in 41 minutes, which was the main reason for his success when the Warriors returned.

“The strength of the numbers is alive and well,” Thompson said. “The Grizzlies had this one player who tweeted” strength of numbers “after defeating us in the regular season, which surprised me very much. I can’t wait to retweet it. Freekin’s ass. I had to see it, I was like “this funny clown”.
“Are you going to mock us? For example, you’ve never been there before, bruh. We were there. We know what it needs. So keep it here to be here again …. Twitter finger, can’t you believe it? “
The road to Thompson’s return to form is particularly impressive.
He broke the ACL against the Toronto Raptors in the 2019 NBA Finals and suffered an Achilles tendon injury while preparing to play again in the 2020-21 season.
