Klay Thompson said he is excited about this new chapter in his career in Miami and impressed by Giannis Antetokounmpo. The 36-year-old star, a four-time NBA champion with the Warriors, praised the Greek Freak and spoke about the impact he has on his team.
“What impresses me the most is Giannis’s work ethic. It’s incredible how hard he works. I see him here every day giving it his all. He focuses particularly on technical training, working on his shot and his ability to finish plays in the paint. It’s a joy to be his teammate. His work ethic influences everyone, right down to the last player on the bench. “When your best player has that kind of work ethic, it raises the intensity throughout the entire organization,” he emphasized.
Early Thursday morning (2:30 a.m.), the Heat kick off the season by hosting the Timberwolves.
