Klay Thompson recently made the tough decision to leave the Golden State Warriors after negotiations for a new contract reportedly stalled. In a surprise move, he agreed to sign a three-year, $50 million deal with the Dallas Mavericks, bringing an end to his 13-year tenure with the Warriors. Throughout this process, Thompson had difficult conversations with his longtime teammate, 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.
During the negotiations leading up to his decision, there was minimal communication between Thompson and the Warriors front office. This lack of contact signified Thompson’s desire to pursue a new opportunity with the Mavericks and face off against his former team in the upcoming seasons.
Steph Curry is known for his organizational influence and is often consulted on major team decisions. However, in this case, 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.
