Klay Thompson showing real progress in ACL tear recovery – ClutchPoints

Golden State Warriors star shooting guard Klay Thompson wont play this season.

However, that doesnt mean we cant still track his ACL rehab.

According to Anthony Slater of The Athletic, Thompson is slowly but surely rounding into form:

The Warriors were always going to be cautious with Thompson since they gave him a five-year max contract this past summer worth $190 million. Klays long-term health is very important to the organization.

Thompson averaged 21.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.4 assists for the Warriors in 2018-19 during the regular season. The five-time All-Star shot 46.7 percent from the field, 40.2 percent from beyond the arc and 81.6 percent from the free-throw line.

In the 2019 playoffs, Thompson put up 20.7 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.1 assists. The Warriors lost to theToronto Raptorsin the NBA Finals in six games, with Thompson tearing his ACL in Game 6.

The Warriors will be playoff contenders again next season withStephen Curry, Klay Thompson,Draymond Green and Andrew Wiggins leading the charge. This season marks the first time in the Steve Kerr era the Dubs wont make the postseason.
