According to ESPN insider Brian Windhorst, there is uncertainty surrounding Klay Thompson’s future with the Warriors as he approaches unrestricted free agency this summer.
Windhorst explained that negotiations between Thompson and the Warriors fell through last season, leading to speculation about his next move. Despite a solid performance with an average of 18 points and a 39 percent 3-point shooting percentage, Thompson’s high salary demands have been a point of contention.
There is a possibility that Thompson may consider other options, but Windhorst believes it’s unlikely that he would leave for a team like the Orlando Magic.
Windhorst also addressed Thompson’s recent move to unfollow the Warriors on Instagram, suggesting that it may not indicate the end of his tenure with the team. He emphasized the importance of Thompson’s role and salary in potential negotiations.
While the situation remains uncertain, teams interested in signing Thompson may view recent developments as a signal of possible opportunities once free agency discussions officially begin on June 30.
