He is widely considered among the greatest shooters in <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/nba\/\">NBA<\/a> history. Thompson's accolades include: five-time NBA All-Star, two-time All-NBA Third Team, NBA All-Defensive Second Team.\r\n\r\nThompson played college basketball for three seasons for the Washington State Cougars. In 2011, he was selected as the 11th overall pick by the Golden State Warriors, where he and Steph Curry became known as the Splash Brothers.\r\n\r\nAfter sustaining an ACL injury during Game 6 of the 2019 NBA Finals and missing the entire 2019\/2020 season, he suffered a torn achilles tendon that caused him to miss the entire 2020\/2021 season. He finally resumed playing in January 2022.\r\n\r\nHe is the son of former NBA player <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/former-lakers-two-time-nba-champion-mychal-thompson-declared-lebron-james-couldnt-have-survived-1980s\/\">Mychal Thompson<\/a>.\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><strong>Full name:<\/strong> Klay Alexander Thompson<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Birthday:<\/strong> Feb. 8, 1990<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong> Hometown:<\/strong> Lake Oswego, Ore.;
