Warriors open to Klay Thompson trade calls

As of right now, the Golden State Warriors are ranked 12th in the Western Conference of the NBA. Could they cut ties with Klay Thompson or take other extreme measures to boost their season?

The trade deadline for the NBA is in little under two weeks. There will be more rumors as Thursday, February 8th, approaches. According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, Golden State would listen if a different club approaches them about one-half of the Splash Brothers.

They’ll answer calls about Chris Paul and Andrew Wiggins, and may they possibly be interested in someone like Klay Thompson? Charania said, “I think those are very much open conversations for the Warriors,” on FanDuel’s Run It Back program. They must possess an open mind. This squad is in the 12th slot, five games below 500. So, throughout the following ten days, we’ll see whether anything changes.

The Warriors see young players like Jonathan Kuminga and Brandin Poziemski “as part of their core moving forward,” Charania said, adding that Stephen Curry is untouchable.

The Golden State Warriors chose the 33-year-old guard/forward with the 11th selection in the 2011 NBA Draft. He has averaged 19.6 points, 2.3 assists, and 3.5 rebounds over his career.

Golden State is now 3-7 in their previous 10 games and is not participating in the NBA Play-In round.
