Klay Thompson would be open to a meeting with the Clippers should the Warriors not present him with a max salary offer at the start of free agency, Adrian Wojnarowski said on the network’s free agency special. Thompson is expected to re-sign in Golden State.
Here’s more from the Western Conference:
- San Antonio could be a fit for Trevor Ariza, Jabari Young of The Athletic writes. Ariza earned $15MM last season on a one-year deal and the Spurs had interest in him last summer, Young hears. Ariza is a candidate for the mid-level exception.
- The Spurs have kept a close eye on Amir Johnson since he played in Toronto, Young adds in the same piece. Young speculates that the 32-year-old big man could be a fit in San Antonio, citing his close relationship with DeMar DeRozan and Rudy Gay.
- Grayson Allen, who was traded to the Grizzlies in the Mike Conley deal, aims to improve his defense during Summer League, as he tells David Cobb of The Memphis Commercial Appeal. “When I tell you I’m going to work on defense this summer, I don’t think many people picture guys in summer workouts doing defensive slides,” Allen said. “…But for me it’s going to be continuing to work on that footwork on the defensive end, getting my body in great shape, great conditioning going into summer league and the season.”
Klay isn’t going anywhere. Jesus the things these guys say just to have an article.
It’s ridiculous
Well I could see the Clippers being quite appealing to him.
its pathetic, lacob literally said “no one is outspending us” – he’s going to go over cap he doesnt care about taxes and penalties lol
While I agree I don’t think he would leave, sometimes these guys do surprise.
Cue Laker fans: “And the Lakers! Lakers are in LA too! Banners! Klay totally wants to be a Laker!”
Might want to reword that Ariza note. How is all of San Antonio going to fit inside Trevor Ariza?
Clearly, you would have had the longest wingspan in this year’s nba draft.
