During the more than two years Klay Thompson was recovering from a torn ACL then torn Achilles, he became a guy who owns and loves his boat. He commuted from his home to the Warriors facility on his 37-foot fishing boat — he got out on the water and avoided the stress of Bay Area bridge traffic, trading it for the wind on his face on the open water.
“You can’t have a bad day when you’re on the boat,” he told Scott Cacciola of the New York Times. He posts to Instagram from the boat all the time.
After a Thompson 3-pointer helped seal a Warriors win over the Nets Saturday night, Kyrie Irving asked Thompson for a ride.
“By the way, can I get a ride on your boat?”
