Dallas Mavericks star Klay Thompson is already learning that being in a high-profile relationship has its ups and downs. Earlier this month, he took his relationship with rap star Megan Thee Stallion public. But being in the public eye can often lead to public issues.
Klay Thompson Gets Into Altercation With Fan Over Tory Lanez
Klay may be an NBA superstar, but he is known for his laid-back demeanor. And it is a well-known fact that he often travels in public without security. While he was walking around New York City, he was recently accosted by a fan who asked him about Tory Lanez.
“Yo, bro, bro, bro, how do you feel about Tory Lanez coming home? What are you going to do?” the fan asked in the video.
Klay was wearing headphones when the fan initially approached him, so he asked him to repeat himself.
“What’s that?” Klay responded in a noticeably annoyed tone.
“How do you feel about Tory?” the fan asked a second time.
Klay, noticeably upset, responded, “Get away from me, bro. Get away from me.”
The fan mockingly responds, “Get away from you?”
Klay then disengaged, blocking his face from the view of the camera while walking in the opposite direction.
“Bro, get away from me.”

The fan appeared to be hinting at the recent report that several high-ranking politicians have backed Lanez in his petition to be released from prison. To bring things up to speed, Lanez is serving a 10-year prison sentence for shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the foot during an altercation in 2020.
Former New Jersey Assemblyman Jamel Holley and White House appointee Jack Brewer are making a major request. Per XXL, they are asking that California Governor Gavin Newsom pardon Lanez.
However, despite new evidence, both Megan and her attorney, Alex Spiro, have maintained that the right decision was made.
