Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson scores past San Antonio Spurs guard Devin Vassell, right, during the second half of an NBA basketball game in San Antonio, Monday, March 11, 2024. Klay Thompson is moving on from the Golden State Warriors, with the four-time league champion agreeing to join the Western Conference champion Dallas Mavericks and change franchises for the first time in his 13-year NBA career, two people with knowledge of the decision said Monday, July 1, 2024.
The Mavericks won’t need him to be the Thompson who scored 60 points in three quarters. Nor will he be asked to guard the best perimeter player on a nightly basis. Thompson’s role will likely be defined as the third scoring option, which the Mavericks desperately needed during their Finals loss to the Boston Celtics. Playoff experience is also where Thompson checks a box that Dallas needs. His four championships in nine playoff appearances speaks for itself.
