Klay Thompson has been gearing for a return to the NBA after two long years. The sharpshooter was unlucky to suffer subsequent tears on his ACL and Achilles and hasn’t been able to touch the court since the 2019 Finals. While he gears up for the season by slowly getting to game shape, he has already managed to surprise some people.

Moses Moody recently, the No. 14 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft has been attending training for the very first time, and he is already awed.

While Moses Moody has been the center of attention during his collegiate career, stars like Klay still make him sit and marvel. The rook was on “The Jim Rome Show” recently, and had remarked “Man, it looks different in person, that was obviously my first time seeing it”, ‘it’ referring to Klay’s jumper.

“But watching that repetition, that exact same shot everyone, I mean I sat there and watched him shoot for 20 minutes, and it didn’t touch the rim a lot, I can tell you that.” Moody has been shooting the 3-ball pretty decently himself, but this is clearly a whole new level for him.

While fans are clamoring to see Klay back and healthy again, we can’t help but feel a little jealous of Moody. However, we surely hope that Klay as well as Moses exceed all our expectations, and come out stronger.
