All eyes will be on Klay Thompson once the free agency arrives on June 30. The Golden State Warriors star grabbed another thousand sets of eyes after his latest social media activity. Thompson sent a shoutout to Chicago Sky’s star Chennedy Carter after her latest scoring outburst against the Dallas Wings.
After the game, Carter took to Instagram and posted a picture of her shooting a jump shot on her IG story. Posting the story, the Sky star captioned the post,
“Thank you God.”
Later, Klay Thompson reposted Carter’s story on his Instagram story and wrote,

Thompson’s shoutout to the Sky star might be wrongly interpreted as the Warriors’ star taking Carter’s side in Caitlin Clark’s beef. However, it wasn’t his intention, because Thompson was simply advertising his signature shoe.
Thompson has a shoe deal with the Chinese shoe brand Anta. Carter rocked Klay Thompson’s KT8 for the game against the Wings on Thursday. The four-time NBA champion was only appreciating her for going about her business on his latest signature shoe.
Carter dropped 19 points in a win against the Wings. She shot 80% from the field as she helped the Sky take 5th win of the season. She is having an excellent season so far and she is one of the leading candidates for the Sixth Player Of The Year. She is averaging 13.3 points and 2.5 assists in 14 games this season.
