What future for Klay Thompson ? Free at the end of the season, the guard has never hidden his wish: to stay with the Golden State Warriors. However, there is one obstacle in the negotiations between the two camps: money.
At 34 years old, the veteran receives an annual salary of $43 million. But sportingly, his contribution has dropped. After his injuries, the Los Angeles native got back on track, but without regaining his best level.
Recently, Thompson even shifted into a new role: 6th man. Despite this situation, he continues to proclaim his desire to stay.
“Whether my role impacts my intentions? Not really. You always have to consider all options, but I would love to be a Warrior for life. Either way, I still have a few years left in me in this sport, so I’m going to enjoy every second”, assured Klay Thompson pour The Athletic.
Among the Warriors, there is also an interest in retaining the historic trio with Stephen Curry et Draymond Green. However, to have an extension over several years, Klay Thompson may have to make efforts.
At the same time, other franchises could offer him larger checks…
Klay Thompson, the Magic’s interest very serious?
