Last July, Klay Thompson had three options on the table: extend to the Warriors, join LeBron James in Lakers, or accept an exchange to support Luka Doncic in the Mavericks. The “Splash Brother” had opted for a $ 50 million contract over three years with Dallas, and the Warriors had set up a “sign-and-trade” to facilitate the task.
Ten months later, the Warriors are in playoffs, and Luka Doncic joined Lebron James in Lakers, also qualified as playoffs. While Thompson and the Mavericks are already on vacation, a journalist asked the shooter if he did not regret his choice …
A “a little ridiculous” question
“Don't ask me … don't do that … don't do that” he repeats smiling. “This is a little ridiculous question. I do not have a time machine, and I do not believe in the fact of going back or rehashing the past. If I had done this throughout my career, I would not be where I am today, and I could not have overcome two really difficult injuries. So I'm here in Dallas, I enjoyed my passage, and I turn to the future. »»
Aged 35 years old, Thompson has no concern to have for his future since his last two years of contract are guaranteed, and except transfer, he will always be alongside Anthony Davis next season.
