On December 17, fans' hopes for Klay Thompson's comeback next week may be in vain.
According to sources familiar with the matter, the Golden State Warriors do not plan to make Thompson comeback on December 20 and 23, local time, and he will not choose to return in the game of the year-end war. Therefore, the earliest time for his return should be at the end of the year, that is, December 28, local time.
The Warriors will play the Denver Nuggets at home on Dec. 28 (local time).
Tang Shen was still undergoing intensive training in the next few weeks.
And with the Warriors' current record and form, they are really not in a hurry to get Thompson back. After Curry broke the NBA three-point record, the team currently plans to take the veterans off. In the next game against the Toronto Raptors, Warriors coach Kerr said they were inclined to take curry and Green in that game, but it had not yet been decided officially.
The Warriors currently have a record of 23-5, ranking first in the West, 0.5 wins ahead of the Phoenix Suns behind them, who have lost 7-3 in their last 10 games.
