After another disappointing end to their season, the Golden State Warriors enter the NBA offseason with the goal extending its championship window. That could end up being a lot easier said than done, but if there’s any front office that could pull off such a move, it’s Golden State’s.
One of the bigger questions that this front office will have to answer fairly early on in the offseason is whether or not Klay Thompson is going to be part of the immediate future. As an unrestricted free agent, Thompson is likely going to give the Warriors the first option to give him the contract that he’s going to be seeking on the open market, but if the two sides can’t find a middle ground, it’s likely that he’s going to truly test the free-agency market for the first time in his career.
According to a recent report, there has been no progress in contract extension talks between the Warriors and Thompson. Even though there’s still a month before the official start of NBA Free Agency, the talks surrounding a potential divorce between the two don’t seem to be fading. In fact, especially with this report, they’re only going to grow louder from here on.
