Although it will be more than a month before the Golden State Warriors face Klay Thompson and the Dallas Mavericks, the atmosphere is already heating up with Draymond Green’s statements. He has sent a strong message to Stephen Curry and his teammates, while also warning Klay Thompson about the significant changes this season.
In an interview on the podcast Sloane Knows, Green did not hesitate to share his thoughts on how he would defend Thompson in the upcoming game. “I will run through his chest,” Green declared, emphasizing that although Thompson is his “brother,” they are no longer on the same side. While the comment may be seen as joking, in the world of basketball, Green’s words always carry a deeper meaning.
In reality, Green and Thompson have played together in over 600 NBA games, but now they stand on opposite sides. With his strong personality and fierce playing style, Green will not shy away from showing his competitiveness on the court.
Klay Thompson, after experiencing frustrations regarding his role with the Warriors, is ready for a new chapter in his career. The combination with Luka Doncic promises to help him regain his form and return to his playing style. Last season, Thompson averaged 17.9 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 43.2% from the field. This is considered a tough year, but with his current mindset, he is preparing for a strong comeback.
Fans are eagerly anticipating Thompson’s performance in a Mavs uniform. This will not just be an ordinary game; it will be an emotional battle for players like Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Steve Kerr. The matchup between the Warriors and Mavs on November 12 promises to bring memorable moments as Klay Thompson returns to the court after significant changes in his career.
Let’s see if Draymond Green can uphold his warning or if Klay Thompson will prove his talent in a new jersey!
