After missing 65 games for the Golden State Warriors in the 2019-20 season, Klay Thompson gave an inside look into his journey back to the court. The Golden State Warriors shooting guard released a six-minute short documentary detailing his ACL surgery rehab.
Along with Thompson’s partner Kaiser Permanente, the film was created by Translation, and directed by Floyd Russ with his creative production partner Tool of North America.
The documentary chronicles Thompson’s recovery from the moment he suffered his injury in game six of the 2019 NBA Finals. The five-time All-Star discusses his injury, the steps in his rehab and his thoughts on the future of the Golden State Warriors dynasty run.
