Klay Thompson's recent appearance on PlaqueBoyMax's Twitch stream offered the NBA community plenty to talk about.
During a long 1-on-1 conversation with the 23-year-old streamer, the Dallas Mavericks guard broke down his all-time starting five and named Draymond Green as his closest former Golden State Warriors teammate.
At the end of the stream, after the duo wrapped up a competitive three-point contest, PlaqueBoyMax asked Thompson to honestly evaluate his basketball ceiling. Thompson joked that Max had no chance of ever making it to the NBA, adding that he had professional potential—perhaps in Italy's third division.
Their collaboration trended across social media for over a day. But former NBA All-Star Michael Redd does not like it. He took to X to criticize how modern players rely on internet streamers for attention.
