For Klay’s Financial Situation To Be Set Up For Post-NBA CAREER His $35,000 mistake made dad Mychal Thompson force him to…
The Golden State Warriors drafted 6’6 guard Klay Thompson as the 11th pick in the 2011 draft. Coming from Washington State, Thompson was supposed to compliment the up-and-rising Stephen Curry. Due to his size, ability to shoot, and two-way playstyle, Thompson became a crucial part of the Warriors.
Klay has been a key part of all four of the Warriors’ championships in the past seven years. Thompson has earned over $182 million in his 11 seasons with the Dubs, thanks to his efforts on the court. Klay has accumulated a net worth of around $85 million, and it’s only set to grow.
For Klay’s Financial Situation To Be Set Up For Post-NBA CAREER His $35,000 mistake made dad Mychal Thompson force him to…
Klay can go around and afford almost anything his heart desires. However, it wasn’t always this way for him. Despite having a father who was a 2x NBA Champion with the Lakers, the Warriors guard didn’t always have money to throw around. His father, Mychal Thompson, made sure of that.
Often we see young kids enter the NBA and get access to more money than they’ve ever seen before. This usually results in unruly spending, leading to the said player running out of money when needed.
Mychal and Julie Thompson didn’t want the same for Klay. In an interview with ESPN, Mychal shared,
THE 23-YEAR-OLD DOESN’T HAVE ACCESS TO HIS MONEY, ALL CHEQUES ARE PAID TO MYCHAL AND JULIE WHO TAKE CARE OF HIS ACCOUNTS FOR HIM TO MAKE SURE KLAY’S FINANCIAL SITUATION IS SET UP FOR HIS POST-NBA CAREER. SO, NATURALLY, PAPA THOMPSON WILL TEACH KLAY A LESSON OF HIS OWN BY FINING HIM PERSONALLY. HOWEVER, KLAY WILL FIND OUT THE OLD-FASHIONED WAY.
“HE WILL [FIND OUT HE’S BEEN FINED BY US] WHEN HE SEES THAT CASH ENVELOPE SHOW UP A LITTLE SHORT THIS WEEK,” HE SAID.

When Klay was fined $35,000 by the NBA for a fight in a game against the Pacers, his father docked his allowance.
In 2013, Klay was paid $2.3 million a year. Talking about his finances and allowances, Mychal shared,
“Rent is $3K … Walking around money $300 a week…” Mychal explained. “That’s a lot of money to go to the movies and buy pizza…”
If Klay wanted to take a girl out for a nice date, here was what his dad advised,
“Go to Langers in Oakland … Go to the grocery store and get a nice [bottle of wine] for $30…”
“Sit in the car and drink it.”
LeBron James and Wife Savannah James Leaves Fans in Awe
LeBron James needs no introduction to Hollywood. The NBA Superstar has acted extensively in fan-favorite movie “Space Jam – A New Legacy” as himself to a more than good reception by movie critics. James has even made a cameo in the 2015 romantic comedy “Trainwreck” showing off his versatility as an actor. Now James has produced the film “Shooting Stars” a film adaptation of James’ and Buzz Bisinger’s book of the same name
James and his wife Savannah were spotted at the premiere of “Shooting Stars” looking absolutely stunning. Fans on Twitter poured in their comments on a tweet posted by GQ, praising the star and his wife for their model appearance in the media with user @12Colombiano59 rightly saying “Talk about relationship goals.”

Although James and his wife Savannah seem to have a stable and mostly positive image in the media now, they have not gone without their share of media backlash and accusations. James has never had concrete evidence backing the many accusations of him cheating on Savannah and therefore they have remained a strong couple throughout the years.

It goes without saying that a star with the stature of LeBron James will have every aspect of his life put on a microscope, so false accusations are expected to be in the plenty.

Infidelity In Marriage- Ayesha Curry Accused Of Seeking Attention from Another Man
Stephen Curry holds a special affinity for the game of golf and recently attended a “memorial golf” event alongside his wife. They shared delightful pictures from the event, including a photo posted by Ayesha on her story. The image captures a moment of pure joy as the couple relaxes together after the event, with Ayesha sitting on Curry’s lap and enjoying their time together. She wrote the caption on her Instagram story “Always THE BEST. My baby”.
In 2019, Ayesha Curry made an appearance on Jada Pinkett Smith’s talk show, “Red Table Talk.” During the discussion, Ayesha, who had recently given birth to her third child, openly addressed insecurities within her marriage.

Ayesha shared her experiences with mental health issues, displaying vulnerability. However, when the episode aired and reached the public, Ayesha found herself under scrutiny. She felt that the footage had been edited in a way that portrayed her in a negative light, making her come across as “crazy.”

It appeared that certain parts of the conversation were selectively cut and arranged to create a more sensationalized narrative for the viewers, rather than accurately representing Ayesha Curry’s genuine thoughts and intentions.
In the show, she addressed that she experiences less prevalent attention from male admirers. Critics on social media directed negative comments toward Curry, accusing her of seeking attention from other men despite being married. Despite the controversy, Steph has held her tight in all her ups and downs.

Steph Curry And Andre Iguodala Ot Battles
Steph Curry was originally planning on spending the last day of May helping the Golden State Warriors prep for the NBA Finals. But after the team was eliminated in the Western Conference Semifinals against the Los Angeles Lakers, Curry’s plans turned to his other passion: golf. And he brought some of his closest people with him.
Curry participated in the PGA Tour’s Memorial Pro-Am on Wednesday at the Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin Ohio, about two hours away from the hospital where he (and LeBron James!) were born.
Unlike some pro-ams, such as the famous event at Pebble Beach, the field for the Memorial was kept under wraps until the last minute. And not only did Curry play, but he — and his philanthropic group, the Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation — were ambassadors.

The pro-am, which takes place a day before the official PGA Tour tournament at the same golf course, features 27 pairings, each with two PGA Tour golfers and three amateurs. Curry, an avid golfer with a low handicap — and someone who golf coaches and pros have said could potentially make the cut at a real tournament — was paired with superstar Jordan Spieth, a three-time Major champion, 13-time PGA Tour winner, the current No. 11 ranked golfer in the world, and, crucially, the face of Under Armour’s golf line. He was also paired with Keith Mitchell, a one-time PGA Tour winner and the No. 56 ranked golfer in the world.
On the amateur side, Curry was paired with his own brother-in-law and former teammate, NBA free agent Damion Lee, as well as country music star and avid golfer Jake Owen.

But Curry wasn’t the only Warriors player in attendance. Andre Iguodala — who is one of Curry’s closest friends and his frequent golf partner — also played in the event. Fittingly, Iguodala was paired with Spieth’s best friend, golf star Justin Thomas, a two-time Major champion, 15-time PGA Tour winner, and currently the No. 15 ranked golfer in the world. He was also paired with J.J. Spaun, a one-time PGA Tour winner and the No. 77 ranked golfer in the world, country music and reality competition star Luke Bryan, and tech investor and influencer Geoff Yang.
In addition to those three Warriors players, Curry’s dad, Dell (a former NBA player and a current broadcaster for the Charlotte Hornets) and brother Seth (a former Santa Cruz Warrior and current NBA free agent) also played. They were paired together with actor Chris O’Donnell, and pros Collin Morikawa, a two-time Major champion, five-time PGA Tour winner, and the No. 18 golfer in the world, and Tyrrell Hatton, a one-time PGA Tour winner and the No. 17 golfer in the world.
In addition to all that, the Bay Area was represented with a few other athletes as well, with former San Francisco 49ers quarterbacks Steve Young and Alex Smith playing, as well as other notable celebrities like retired NFL superstars Peyton Manning and Larry Fitzgerald, and actor Josh Duhamel.
On the golf side, the top five golfers in the world, by the official rankings — Scottie Scheffler, Jon Rahm, Rory McIlroy, Patrick Cantlay, and Xander Schauffele — were all competing.
Now look at this swing! Don’t leave us for golf yet, Steph!
