Klay Thompson is in the midst of a shooting slump, one that he slightly recovered from with a 32 point performance agains the Portland Trailblazers.
Warriors won the game 115-105, with Klay Thompson putting up a brilliant show, not just with the basketball, but without the ball as well.
As soon as Klay nailed a brilliant 3 pointer, he looked at his hand and said to it, ‘I missed you’.
“I missed you.” shouted Klay Thompson while looking at his hand.
“I’d rather have (shots) fall in playoff time than December. Just because I’ve had a few bad games in a row, I’m not going to worry about not shooting the ball well. I’m one of the best shooters to ever play, so I don’t care what people say.” Thompson said.

Klay Thompson: “What is somebody going to tell me about my jump shot that I can’t fix? Unless it’s Reggie Miller or Ray Allen, I don’t know who I’m supposed to listen to. Larry Bird? Steve Kerr. I’ll listen to Steve. Steve shot 45 percent.” pic.twitter.com/GCfSmymz96

‘Booker T’ knows a little something about gestures with his hands and thus tried to weigh in on the Klay Thompson gesture.
Booker T took to twitter to post a picture about himself doing his famous hand gesture alongside Klay’s ‘I missed you’ one.
Hey @KlayThompson, I can dig it. https://t.co/Q5WIjUuqoA

While Klay was trying to welcome back his shooting hand, as he had been out of form for sometime, Booker T does this gesture as he is the 5 time WCW champion.
And Twitter went absolutely crazy after Booker T’s tweet.
Haha how good ey!
