Klay Thompson was left off the NBA's 75th anniversary team of its 75 greatest players.- Warriors players trolled Thompson over the slight with a No. 77 jersey.
Warriors big man Draymond Green posted two videos to social media showing a No. 77 jersey that players gifted Thompson, a troll job over just missing the 75th list.
In a video posted to Green's Instagram, Thompson strutted around the room, yelling: "77! Best player of all time, baby!" as Stephen Curry cackled.
Green also posted another video of the No. 77 jersey hanging in Thompson's locker again as Curry laughed.
Thompson had expressed disappointment with not being named to the team, writing on his Instagram story on Friday: "Woke up this AM, still pissed about this stupid ass list. Ga damn I can't wait to hoop again. Sick of the disrespect. Winning isn't everything to some people like it is to me I guess."

Thompson certainly has the resumé to warrant inclusion on the list. He's a 5-time All-Star, 2-time All-NBA member, All-NBA Defensive Team member, a three-time champion, and one of the greatest three-point shooters ever.
Of course, Thompson has also missed the last two seasons with injuries, meaning his game might seem a bit forgotten to the selection panel that made the team.
Thompson is slated to return this season, giving him a chance to remind the NBA world of his talents. It doesn't seem as if he'll make the permanent switch to the 77 jersey, however.
