Klay heartwarmingly gifts Make-A-Wish fan prized Kobe memento
K汤帮血癌小朋友圆梦 给了Kobe的签名照
It was a dream come true for 15-year-old Joseph Tagaban when he met his
basketball hero, Klay Thompson, last week, but an unexpected gift from his
idol left him in awe.
上星期一位15岁的小男生Joseph Tagaban愿望成真,他终于跟他的篮球偶像K汤见面,
然后他还得到了一件让他欣喜不已的礼物。
For a segment of ESPN’s “My Wish” series that aired Wednesday, Thompson
was able to spend a day with Tagaban, a young basketball standout who learned
in December 2020 that he had a rare form of cancer known as acute myeloid
leukemia.
星期三播出的ESPN节目"我的愿望"(My Wish)中,K汤花了一天的时间陪着Tagaban,这
位年轻的篮球员在前年12月得知他得了一种很少见的癌症叫急性骨髓性白血病。

that wish come true as Klay gave Joseph an unforgettable day"
“在经过九个月的治疗后,Tagaban知道他想要许什么愿望:跟K汤见面。而这位勇士

“Klay’s form, I mean, it’s absolutely so clean,” Tagaban told ESPN during
the segment. “It’s really satisfying just watching his game, and I just
overall appreciate it. And as a player, I’ve seen clips of him … he’s
super humble.”
“K汤的投球,就是个干净,”Tagaban说。“光看他的比赛就是让人心满意足,我就是
很爱。而自己身为一个球员,我看他的篮球片段...他真的超谦虚的。”
In partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation, “My Wish” made it happen,
and Tagaban was able to spend time with Thompson at his offseason gym Friday.
在与Make-A-Wish基金会合作下,"我的心愿"这节目让他的梦想成真,Tagagan在上星期
五与休赛季的K汤一起度过。
It was there that Thompson gifted Tagaban with an autographed photo of Kobe
Bryant, tucked away into a black folder from the late legend’s 2007 Nike
Kobe Skills Academy. Thompson attended as a high school camper, while his
future teammate, Steph Curry, a sophomore at Davidson, was a college camper.
就是那时候K汤给了Tagaban一张有着Kobe签名的Kobe照片,那是2007年Nike Kobe篮球
技巧营的时候,K汤是以高中篮球员的身分参加,而他的未来队友咖哩则是在Davidson
大二,以大学生的身分参加。
“He’s the greatest,” Thompson said. “We miss him.”
“他是最伟大的球员,”K汤说。“我们都很想他。”
As Thompson handed over the photo he received when he was just a teen
himself, Tagaban was in shock.
当K汤把他在青少年获得的Kobe签名照给Tagaban的时候,Tagaban非常惊讶。
“For real?” Tagaban asked Thompson, clearly in awe at the
once-in-a-lifetime gift.
“真的吗?”Tagaban问K汤,因为这是一生难得一次的礼物。
“Yeah, man, that’s yours,” Thompson responded.
“没错,兄弟,这是你的了,”K汤说。
It was a day to remember for Tagaban, who received shooting tips from
Thompson on the court, went for a spin in the Golden State star’s classic
car and even got ice cream with his hoops hero.
那一日对Tagaban来说是值得纪念的日子,他在球场上得到K汤的篮球技巧秘诀,跟着
K汤一起搭他的经典车,甚至跟他的篮球英雄一起吃冰淇淋。
And once their fun had come to an end, Thompson told The Mercury News why he
was willing to part with his prized Bryant possession.
最后,K汤跟记者说为何他愿意把他珍贵的Kobe收藏品给出去。
"I just know he’s going through a hard time and I know he’ll cherish that
photo,” Thompson said. “Just such a special photo of mine, and I decided to
hook him up. He’s a great young man. He deserves it.”
“我知道他正经历过一段困难的时光,我知道他会珍惜这张照片的,”K汤说。“就是
我有的一张特别的照片,所以我决定带他入门,他是个很棒的年轻人,他值得得到这份
礼物。”
