Klay Thompson Grants NBA Dream In ESPN's ‘My Wish’ Series

Sometimes, dreams do come true.

Together with the Make-A-Wish foundation, ESPN recently released their My Wish series, with Warriors’ very own Klay Thompson as one of the featured athletes in this year’s inspirational series.

The My Wish series, airing on SportsCenter, features world class athletes, global superstars, and championship teams granting once in a lifetime experiences to children facing critical illness who have demonstrated strength and resilience despite difficult challenges.

In the heartfelt segment, Thompson meets 15-year-old Joseph Tagaban from Petersburg, Alaska. In January 2021, Tagaban was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, a rare form of leukemia rarely found in children.
