The 2021-22 NBA champions Golden State Warriors recently made their trip to the White House amidst much fanfare. The winning team was invited by POTUS Joe Biden and the stars were out in all their glory. Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Klay Thompson, and every other member of the team were present. While it was a memorable occasion for most, the same might not apply to Klay Thompson.

Thompson returned back after 3 years to help the Warriors win the title

The four-time NBA champion injured himself during the 2019 NBA finals against the Toronto Raptors which eventually led to their loss. He was out for 941 days during which the Warriors evidently struggled.
