Dodgers Social: Magic Johnson Has Fun With Trayce And The Thompsons

With Trayce playing hero last night and his brother Klay narrowing in on his second straight NBA Championship, it’s safe to say that the Thompson family is in the news today.  Dodger’s part-owner Magic Johnson is no stranger to the limelight or to the Thompson’s, so this morning it was no surprise that Magic felt like having a little fun with Trayce, Klay, and Mychal.

It all started with compliments:

Great 3-2 win for our @Dodgers over the Mets last night, thanks to Trayce Thompson's first career walk-off home run!

After watching Trayce & Klay Thompson grow up, it's amazing watching them now as professional athletes in the MLB and NBA!

But ultimately Magic had to remind them of their place in their family lineage:

Mychal Thompson, father of Klay & Trayce, was a better athlete! Lol

Both brothers will be back on their respective fields of play tonight, with Trayce playing against the Mets, and Klay in the NBA Western Conference Semi-Finals. The Thompson’s are the hottest family in sports right now, and Magic knows to surround himself with winners.
