NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. – Not much bothers Klay Thompson.

The Golden State Warriors’ star maintained he understood Kevin Durant’s departure to the Brooklyn Nets. He remains patient with recovering from an ACL injury in his left knee that will sideline him for the beginning of the 2019-20 NBA season. He appeared refreshed from a summer filled with rehab and relaxation.

Thompson became bothered, though, with what President Donald Trump said about the Bahamas following the destruction that Hurricane Dorian inflicted on his father’s homeland. Trump warned about the government admitting Bahamians into the U.S., saying that the 700-island nation has “some very bad people and some very bad gang member and some very, very bad drug dealers.”

“I didn’t appreciate the language he used with Bahamians,” Thompson told USA TODAY Sports. “They’re gang members and criminals? I’ve known Bahamians my whole life. Yes, there are criminals in Nassau. But there are criminals worldwide. When you lose everything, your home, your loved ones and thousands are dead, and then you generalize a whole population, I thought it was very very ill advised and bad timing. That language really (ticked) me off.”

Thompson said the words “hurt my heart” and compelled him to call out Trump in an Instagram post that promoted the second annual Thompson Family Foundation Celebrity Golf Tournament at Pelican Hill Resort on Thursday and Friday.

The Thompson family plans to donate all of its proceeds to relief efforts in the Bahamas, including food and medical supplies. Mychal Thompson, Klay’s father, told USA TODAY Sports that the family feels confident it can give at least $1 million.

“He’s wrong about the gang affiliations over there,” Mychal said. “There are people over there that are good people. Hard-working people. So he was wrong with that statement. I don’t think (other) Americans have misconceptions about Bahamians. We don’t have gang problems and that type of hard problems in the Bahamas. We have people who are in need and in poverty. But for the most part, Bahamians are great people and help each other out in times of need. That’s what they’re doing right now.”

The Thompson Family Foundation raised money last year at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco for charities in Oakland, the Bahamas, Los Angeles and Portland. Shortly after Hurricane Dorian inflicted damage on the place that Klay calls “a second home," the Thompson family shifted priorities.

Klay and Mychal said their family has remained spared since they live in Nassau. Others have not been as fortunate. Klay has spoken with various members of the Bahamian national basketball team, all of whom have relayed stories about losing their homes.

“It’s hard to even put it in perspective,” Klay said. “If I can raise awareness and get money to get supplies to these people and their family, it’s the least I can do. I’m just honored to be in this position.”
