After a decade of playing for the Golden State Warriors, Klay Thompson has decided to leave the team. Despite ongoing negotiations for a new contract, talks reportedly stalled and Thompson opted to sign a three-year, $50 million deal with the Dallas Mavericks instead.
During this process, Thompson had difficult conversations with his longtime teammate and friend, Steph Curry. According to The Athletic’s Anthony Slater, Thompson asked Curry not to pressure the Warriors front office into re-signing him. Despite Curry’s significant influence within the organization, he respected Thompson’s request and did not push for his return. Ultimately, it was a decision that Thompson made on his own, leading to his departure from the Warriors.
The lack of communication between Thompson and the Warriors front office during negotiations signaled his desire to pursue a new opportunity with the Mavericks and face off against his former team in upcoming seasons. While Curry is known for his organizational influence and is often consulted on major team decisions, he respected Thompson’s wishes and allowed the process to unfold without interference.
Thompson’s departure marks the end of an era for the Warriors as he embarks on a new chapter in his career with the Mavericks.
