Warriors Offered Klay Thompson A Contract Before Talks Stalled Out

Before the start of the season, Klay Thompson was offered a two-year, $48 million extension by the Golden State Warriors. As we all know the veteran guard didn’t like the deal, wanted something more on his terms, and now there is a standstill between both sides.

With the season Thompson has been having, Golden State is in no rush to extend him a new deal. The Warriors haven’t felt the pressure of extending him.

Thompson is in the final year of his $190 million deal signed in 2019 after tearing his ACL in the NBA Finals. If he continues to perform poorly, he may hit the open market in the 2024 offseason.

This season, he is averaging 15.4 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 2.0 assists in 30.0 minutes in 22 games played. It should also be noted Thompson is hitting a career-low 34.3% on three-pointers and a very underwhelming 39.7% from the field.
