Ever since Klay Thompson ended the ‘Splash Bros.’ and joined the Dallas Mavericks, supporters of the Golden State Warriors have been waiting for him to return to face them in person. In the offseason, Thompson betrayed the devotion of many Warriors supporters when he inked a three-year, $50 million contract with the Dallas Mavericks. He won four of the team’s five NBA Finals appearances during his thirteen years there, sharing the trophy with Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, and coach Steve Kerr. Fans will finally have an opportunity to say goodbye when Thompson returns to Chase Center next season, after a heartbreaking goodbye. The specific date of that has now been determined.

 

 

The inaugural NBA Cup last year was a smashing success; it spruces up the league and should not be confused with the NBA Play-In Tournament, which the Lakers won the previous year. The Dallas Mavericks and the Golden State Warriors are just two of the intriguing teams who will be playing in next year’s tournament. Along with the Memphis Grizzlies, the Denver Nuggets, and the New Orleans Pelicans, these two squads are competing in the tournament as members of West Group C. So, it’s a stacked group, and November 12th is when Klay Thompson will be back in San Francisco. We can’t forget to consider Thompson’s long-term prospects with the Mavericks.

 

 

 

 

 

If Klay Thompson signs with the Dallas Mavericks, he’ll get to play alongside Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic, two of the NBA’s best players. A squad that last year lost in the NBA Finals against the Boston Celtics. Klay is already fantasizing about the prospect of playing alongside these other superstars, which is wonderful news for the team. In the midst of his already legendary career, future Hall of Famer Klay Thompson is vying for a record-setting fifth NBA championship. If Klay Thompson suits up for the Warriors game, how many points do you anticipate he’ll score?
