The transfer market officially started three days ago, since December 15 is the date on which the majority of players who signed a new contract or were transferred last summer became transferable again. It is around this time that rumors of movements begin to surface. And Klay Thompson wants to be at the center of the conversation between now and February.
The shooting guard, who has improved his performance in the last month of competition by shooting above 40%, arrived in Dallas with only one thing in mind. Wearing his fifth championship ring. Things have changed in Texas and, despite the team’s improvement, that goal seems far away. «My goal is to win and that. “It hasn’t changed,” he admitted recently about his role as sixth man.
Personal ambition and the intentions of the franchise coincide here, which will surely explore its market in the coming weeks. On the right team, Thompson can still add quality minutes as a shooter. Above all, and increasingly on standing feet. The big obstacle is the more than 30 million he has left to collect and, especially, the 17 million for next season.
At the moment, there are no buyers on the horizon.
