Players, fans welcome Warriors’ Klay Thompson back to NBA

After nearly 1,000 days away due to two serious leg injuries, Golden State Warriors star Klay Thompson made his much-anticipated return Sunday night.

Before the game, Steph Curry stepped aside to let Thompson be the last player introduced and fans at the Chase Centre welcomed him back with a loud celebration.

While head coach Steve Kerr said the Warriors would ease Thompson into the game and limit his minutes, the superstar guard wasted little time getting on the scoreboard — sinking a layup for Golden State’s first points of the game.

Players past and present from across the NBA took to social media to welcome Thompson back to the league. Here are some of the best reactions.
