Beijing time on January 17, the NBA regular season continued, the Warriors against the Timberwolves, the current game is still in progress, the Warriors are still behind at the end of the third quarter, this game, Curry and Green Warriors two major stars are absent due to injury, and the previous comeback Thompson is still in good shape, as of the end of the third quarter 10 shots 4 to score 10 points.
Klay Thompson's 4 games since his comeback, played not very well, so far there are 13 points in the account, shooting only 36%, the highest game is the first game against the Cavaliers 17 points, it can be seen that the impact of injury on Klay Thompson is very large, the past Thompson is the strongest 3D player in the league, but now Thompson's defense is basically gone, in the defensive end completely can not keep up with the opponent's footsteps, the most important thing, Thompson's athleticism was originally mediocre in the NBA, and now he has returned from a major injury and is basically at the bottom, which has also caused his offensive efficiency to decline sharply.
If Thompson is still a 20-something guy, then we can still expect him, but Thompson is about to turn 32, for a guard player, this is already in decline, not to mention The Thompson, who has suffered such a serious injury, can be expected, the Warriors' previous 5-year, $190 million maximum salary contract with Thompson is already doomed to be a garbage contract.
