The start of the 2022 NBA Finals hasn’t been without struggle for Klay Thompson, but the Warriors sharpshooter thinks he has just the trick to help himself out of his small shooting slump.
Speaking to reporters on Tuesday ahead Wednesday’s Game 3, Thompson said that when he’s going through an offensive downswing, he often goes onto YouTube to pull up videos of himself from better past performances. When asked what he might search for this time around, the 32-year-old had just the answer.
“I’ll probably just YouTube ‘Game 6 Klay’,” Thompson said with a smile, alluding to some of the iconic performances he’s had in Game 6’s in his career. “There’s some very high-pressurized situations I was in and I ended up shooting the ball well. When you can do it when your back is against the wall, you can do it at any given moment. It’s just about keeping that mental strong.”
