The legend of "China Klay" Thompson has been well-documented, as the Warriors star is one of the country's most popular American athletes.
Anta -- the Chinese company Thompson has an exclusive shoe contract with -- posted a sign during one of Klay's visits to China with what it calls the "11 Rules of Klaytheism." A Reddit user recently translated each rule, and the results are expectedly hilarious.

No. 7 has to be the best one, especially with how publicly Thompson has been flaunting his current girlfriend on Instagram. But I mean come on, how can you not love Rocco?
We've heard about the idea of "Klaytheism" before, in this short film published in 2017 from The Ringer.
