Klay Thompson suffered from a torn ACL in Game 6 of the NBA Finals in 2018-29 season against the Toronto Raptors. He went onto miss the entire of 2019-20 season, alongside a separate injury to Stephen Curry as well. The marquee pair missing, led the Golden State Warriors to register their worst record in the NBA, finishing last in the western conference. 

Thompson’s role in the team has been impeccable. Not just adding 17-20 points in every quarter. But also helping back in the defensive. He had just returned to practice sessions with the team. He joined the Warriors minicamp, took part in some 3 on 3 scrimmages, and looked pretty promising in the practice sessions.

ESPN’s Nick Friedell in his recent appearance at the KJZ described the state of the Warriors’ camp post-Thompson’s injury. He said, “Everybody is just depressed. 

“They were so excited leading into the draft, the fact that Wiseman was at number, he was their number 1, they were really looking forward to see Steph, Klay and Draymond and plug in Wiseman and seeing what we can give them.” 

He added, “The range of emotions the couple of hours before the draft and the couple of hours after the draft, they really couldn’t celebrate because everybody was so sad for Klay. 

“He is the guy behind the scenes with all the star power in the locker room that sets the tone for everybody else. That’s why Kerr and all those players love. so, to know that he will be out again for another year was just crushing for everybody involved.” 

Hoping for a blockbuster return of their marquee players, the Warriors would have to come up with a new plan in order to compete for the title.
