Watch: Mavericks’ Klay Thompson takes batting practice at Globe Life Field

Klay Thompson and Dwight Powell were at Globe Life Field on Monday for the Texas Rangers’ game against the Athletics for Dallas Mavericks Night.

Thompson took batting practice at the stadium as players and fans watched on.

The four-time NBA champion has been a mainstay in the news of late over his new relationship with rap superstar Megan Thee Stallion, with whom he’s been seen in pictures and videos.

Thompson will also throw out the first pitch at Monday’s game, and fans who purchased theme night tickets will receive a special edition Dallas Mavs-Texas Rangers City Connect basketball jersey.
