邁阿密熱火隊在週六以 145：135 擊敗印第安納溜馬隊喜提二連勝，成功走出開季令人意外的 0 勝 4 敗陰霾。而在這場勝利中，新加盟的明星射手 Klay Thompson 成了最大亮點。在經歷開季短暫的低迷後，Thompson 迎來加盟熱火隊後的首次爆發，賽後他也談到了即將到來、充滿感性情緒的客場之旅。

熱火隊即將展開一波美西客場五連征，首戰將於週二挑戰洛杉磯湖人隊——這不僅是他的家鄉球隊，也是他父親 Mychal Thompson 在 1987 年至 1991 年間效力過的球隊。Thompson 在週六獲勝後表示，洛杉磯正是他「真正愛上籃球」的地方。

「我非常喜歡去洛杉磯。我喜歡見到我的父母、兄弟以及姪女和姪子。我也很喜歡在 Crypto.com Arena 比賽，因為在那座球館裡關於我父親的記憶，對我的內心來說是如此珍貴，」全場 14 投 9 中、三分球 12 投 7 中砍下 25 分的 Thompson 賽後感性地表示。

談到熱火隊這次的美西客場之旅，還包含了週四晚間客場對陣金州勇士隊的重頭戲，這無疑是一場牽動 Thompson 無數情感的比賽。在勇士隊效力的 13 個賽季裡，他隨隊奪得四座總冠軍，並與 Stephen Curry、Draymond Green、總教練 Steve Kerr 等人建立起無可取代的深厚情誼，但他依然明確表示自己「超級想擊敗他們」。

「我在那裡創造的所有回憶都是無與倫比的。我會見到許多和我一起長大的兄弟，但我非常想痛擊他們，」Thompson 表示。「我們在 30 多歲的年紀依然保持著強烈的競爭心，我非常喜歡去和他們競爭，因為他們是我最好的朋友，我迫不及待想回去見見那些熟悉的面孔了。」

無論如何，Thompson 與熱火隊都希望在週一對陣湖人隊的比賽中延續連勝氣勢。

Klay Thompson spoke about returning to LA on the upcoming road trip, and also about the prospect of facing his former team in the Warriors: #Heat “Well, it's very surreal being in the Eastern Conference, going back there only once now. And I love going to L.A. I love seeing my parents, my brothers, my niece and nephew. I love being in crypto arena because the memories I have of my dad in that arena are so dear to my heart. That's why I really fell in love with basketball. And then you go, you know, interstate. You go to the Bay, and all the memories I was able to make up there are second to none. And I see so many guys I grew up with, and I want to beat them bas. You know, we're we're all still very competitive in our mid 30s, and I love to go compete against them because they're some of my best friends, and I just can't wait to go back and see familiar faces as well. Like not just the players, but the training staff, the equipment managers, the people who work the stands and the concessions, the custodian. I mean, I have friends for life in the Bay and LA, so it's it's always special.”
