"Klay Thompson could sail up the Hudson to Tarrytown for practice": Knicks fans react to Sea Captain enjoying finals days of the off-season

With less than 30-days for the official NBA season to kick off, Sea Captain Klay Thompson aims to enjoy his limited time in the ocean.  

Klay Thompson couldn’t have wished better, winning his 4th championship with the Warriors after missing two seasons due to catastrophic injuries. The former 3-point contest champion’s journey hasn’t been less than a fairytale, with him only getting better in the upcoming season.

During his rehab time, Thompson continued to entertain fans with his iconic boat rides. The Warriors guard’s bonding sessions with pet dog Rocco were as endearing as it gets. The 32-year-old exhibited a rare side of him, unknown to the public eye, earning nicknames like Boat Klay and Sea Captain.
