Klay Thompson, a five-time All-Star and four-time NBA champion, has agreed to join the Dallas Mavericks on a three-year, $50 million deal, as reported by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
The agreement includes a player option for the final year, but the deal’s completion hinges on the Golden State Warriors finalizing their end of the sign-and-trade arrangement, according to Yahoo’s Jake Fischer.
Thompson leaves Warriors as a legend
Thompson’s move to Dallas marks a significant shift after spending his entire career with the Warriors, where he formed one of the most formidable backcourts in NBA history alongside Stephen Curry.
Over the past decade, Thompson played a pivotal role in securing four championships for Golden State and left an indelible mark with his legendary postseason performances.
Despite his contributions, the Warriors have decided not to retain Thompson, likely due to years of luxury tax burdens and a focus on developing younger talent.
