In the clip, Thompson is seen showing his mobile phone to Green as the two were wrapping up an interview alongside newly-crowned Finals Most Valuable Player Kevin Durant. Klay’s exact words to Draymond were not completely coherent, but thankfully it was explained by the latter just moments later.
Apparently, Thompson Googled himself and was extremely pleased about how quick his online profile was updated on the search engine. Green took the mic and confirmed the news to the press, proudly stating that his teammate’s description already bore the caption”three-time champion.”
Both Thompson and Green clinched the third titles in their careers with last night’s Game 4 blowout against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Both players have also spent their entire careers with the Warriors and have been to the NBA Finals alongside each other for the fourth consecutive year.
Thompson was drafted by Golden State in the 2011 NBA Draft going 11th overall, while Green teamed up with the Warriors in the succeeding year’s draft. Unlike his compatriot though, the 6-foot-7 forward was picked in the second round going 35th overall.
These two studs were both pivotal in their team’s championship run this term. For his part, Klay Thompson averaged 19.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 3.2 3-pointers per game in the Playoffs. Draymond did not disappoint himself, averaging a 10.8-point and 10.6-rebound double-double throughout the entire postseason while also contributing 8.1 assists, 2 steals, and 1.5 blocks per contest.
