Klay Thompson’s decision to sign with the Dallas Mavericks has caused some disappointment in the Thompson family, particularly with his father, Mychal Thompson, who had hoped Klay would join the Los Angeles Lakers in free agency instead. Mychal expressed his disappointment on SiriusXM NBA Radio, revealing that he was hoping and praying Klay would finish his career with the Lakers, but ultimately the Mavericks won out in the end.
Thompson’s three-year, $50 million deal with the Mavericks marks the end of his successful tenure with the Golden State Warriors. Having won four championships with the Warriors, Thompson played a crucial role in the team’s dynasty alongside Stephen Curry and Draymond Green. While his scoring output last season was not his best, he still remains a valuable contributor to any team.
Klay’s decision to join the Mavericks was a tough one, especially with the Lakers being in consideration. Mychal, who had played for the Lakers and won two championships with the team, tried to persuade his son to choose Los Angeles. However, Klay ultimately chose Dallas, where he will have the opportunity to play alongside stars like Luka Dončić and Kyrie Irving.
Despite his initial disappointment, Mychal has accepted Klay’s decision and is happy that his son is content with his choice. While he had hoped Klay would play for the Lakers, he understands and supports Klay’s decision to join the Mavericks.
