On January 1, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season is in full swing. So far, the Warriors have a record of 27 wins and 7 losses, ranking first in the league. At the same time, it is getting closer and closer to the comeback of Thompson, the hero of the team's triple crown!
Due to the Nuggets' understaffing, the game between the Warriors and nuggets that should have been played yesterday was canceled. But even so, the Warriors stayed in Denver so that they could help Thompson better recover from training, which is enough to show the importance the team attaches to Thompson. In addition, judging from the training videos released by the Warriors, Thompson's state recovery is still very good.
After today's training, Thompson spoke about himself in an interview and revealed specifics about the comeback. He said: "I want to play in front of our fans, for the first time in two years, and they should see me at home. ”
Thompson's remarks also confirmed previous reports that Thompson would pick a home game comeback. According to previous reports, Thompson will return as soon as January 4 in a home game against the Heat, which means that there may only be 3 days left before Thompson returns to the game.
It is worth mentioning that in an interview yesterday, Warriors coach Kerr said bluntly: "When he comes back, he will be the starting player." I can't fool around and let him play as a substitute for a while or something, I'm not going to do that. "As a result, when Thompson returns, Poole, who has performed well this season, is likely to return to the bench.
