Was Klay Thompson's Comeback The Greatest Of All Time?

Golden State Warriors star Klay Thompson won the Comeback Athlete of the Year Award at the 2022 ESPY's. It capped off a year where he returned from injury to secure the NBA title. Klay's comeback was one for the ages but was it the greatest NBA comeback from injury of all time? We explore players like Isaiah Thomas, Bernard King, Willis Reed and Shuan Livingston to answer that question.

Coming off of a 2 season absence straight into a ring is unprecedented and It couldn't have happened to a better ambassador for the game. What are your thoughts on Klay and the Warriors run?

I didn't realize that Thompson had the most points in a quarter. Oddly enough, I thought it was Jordan in the shrug game. But he only had 35 points in that entire game. Thompson had 37 in one quarter. Unbelievable.

I thought similarly until I dug into it. It should tell you just how brilliantly Steph shines that stuff like this slides into the shadows.

It was not the greatest comeback of all time . I feel Bernard King in 1988 was the best comeback in my opinion. But it was a great video

Bernard King deserves his own video but TBH The Knicks gave up on him too soon. Thanks for watching.

@@ViewTheRightThing I never watched Bernard King but always hear him. Will there be a chance you do that topic?

[@ViewTheRightThing]

@@NATUREBOYP ABSOLUTELY! A lot of the day 1 Viewers put me on to B. King and he's legit! Other videos just keep jumping in front of it. Look for it in < 30 days or so. Thanks for the dope comment.
