On November 24, he scored 31 points with five 3-pointers in a 117–116 win over the Sacramento Kings. Thompson moved to 21st place on the NBA’s career 3-pointers list when he overtook Jason Richardson for his 1,609th place in the first quarter. On December 29, he had the second-highest scoring game of the season with 32 points in a 115–105 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers. He showed his way out of the slump by hitting 12 of 21 off the field and 4 of 5 from the 3-point boundary. On January 8, he scored 43 points with seven 3-pointers in a 122–95 victory over the New York Knicks.

Is white
While Kel’s father is black, his mother, Julie Thompson, is white. She is an American-born athlete from Ridgefield, Washington. Like Kel’s father, he is also an athlete. She played volleyball at both the University of San Francisco and the University of Portland, where she thrived.
Currently, she is a successful career woman in academia. His love of the sport and inherent athleticism helped Kell, and his lineage goes back to Western Europe. Klay gets her skin color from the family.
Espys
During his speech, Thompson recalled the Staples Center (now Crypto.com Arena) with his father, Mychal Thompson, where he served as a commentator for the Lakers from 1987–1991.
“The best memories I have of growing up here in Southern California are going to Staples [Center] with my father. I had a privileged life. He was a commentator for the Lakers, and I used to watch Kobe see his work. He used to go early in every game,” Thompson said.
“Finally, I’d like to thank the Bryant family because, I don’t know if Vanessa is looking there, but for Vanessa and her three beautiful girls, we think of Kobe and Gigi every day. I’m in rehab every day. The day I read ‘Mamba mentality’. Watching her play is one of the best memories of my life. She inspired me to be the athlete I am today.”
Who is dating
It is rumored that his ex-girlfriend, Hannah Stocking, is currently dating seven-foot NBA star Rudy Gobert.
Thompson is currently dating Laura Harrier who played Liz Allen in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Kel and Laura have often been spotted together, whether at the Oscars or the All-Star Game. In 2018, they started dating when Kel recently ended a romance with American model Carlene Henry.
Hannah Stocking, who dated Kel in 2015, is now with Utah Jazz player Rudy Gobert. The two were first linked in June 2021 when they celebrated Gobert’s 29th birthday. Hannah wore an oversized French basketball jersey when she went to Utah to attend a birthday celebration. Given that Gobert is French and plays for the France national team, the implications of dating the two were clear.
