It turns out that even five-time NBA All-Stars with four championship rings can be hypnotized too.
Earlier this week during a visit to Dodgers Stadium to see his younger brother, Trayce, play with Los Angeles, Golden State Warriors sharpshooter Klay Thompson met with magician and hypnotist Johnny Wu. According to uproxx.com, Thompson was also in attendance for a charity event put on by ace starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw.

The 32-year-old is coming off of an inspiring season that saw him return to the court midway through the year for the first time since the 2019 NBA Finals. Thompson missed the entire 2019-2020 campaign with a torn ACL and sat out all of the 2020-2021 campaign with a torn Achilles.
The former All-Defensive player averaged 20.4 points, a career-high 3.9 rebounds and 2.8 assists across 32 regular-season games while posting a 42.9/38.5/.902 shooting line. Thompson helped the Dubs earn their fourth title in the last eight years by posting 19.0 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2.3 assists over 22 playoff games.
