Klay Thompson cuts vacation short for heartwarming reason

Thompson also stuck around for Moody’s youth basketball camp the next day. He showed off some of his hops to the engaged campers and even taught them how to craft and throw expert-level paper airplanes.

Warriors fans know all about Thompson’s fascination with paper airplanes. Over the past couple of seasons, the sharpshooter has been known to play around with them during postgame press conferences. Learning about Klay’s paper plane process up close and being able to toss them alongside him isn’t a memory those kids will forget anytime soon.

The Warriors have long been a franchise that boasts a strong winning culture. They hit a few bumps last season, most notably with the offseason punch that rocked Jordan Poole and the team.

After a few trades and free agent acquisitions, a revamped Golden State side is looking to regain its championship-caliber chemistry and erase last season’s woes from memory. Thompson helping out his young teammate is definitely a step in the right direction.
