One of the most significant moves of the NBA offseason went down on Monday afternoon, as the Dallas Mavericks landed future Hall of Fame sharpshooter Klay Thompson in free agency. And one of Dallas’ most famous sons is quite pleased about it.
Kansas City Chiefs superstar Patrick Mahomes, who grew up in Texas and has been spotted courtside at numerous Mavericks games over the last few years, took a victory lap to celebrate the Thompson acquisition on social media. He sent out a tweet on X (formerly Twitter) responding to his teammate Charles Omenihu saying he wished the Los Angeles Lakers could have signed Thompson instead.
