Warriors shooting guard Klay Thompson was interviewed. He said he has only recovered 80% now and that he will return to his peak level in the future.
"I feel like I'm recovering 80 percent now and I still have a long way to go." Thompson said.
At the same time, he said: "I want to get back to the elite level I was in the Best Team and I know I'll recover. My recovery has now exceeded my expectations. I'm competitive, I want to shoot a higher shooting percentage, I want to be as efficient as I used to be. ”
Thompson has returned after two seasons of serious injuries this season, and currently plays in 16 games for the Warriors, averaging 17.1 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.1 assists in 25.3 minutes per game, shooting 37.4 percent from three-point range. Although he suffered two serious injuries and was suspended for more than two seasons, Thompson's comeback was in a rather good state, far exceeding expectations.
Previously, the Nets' Durant was still in a strong state after his comeback from a major injury, and Thompson, who was reimbursed for two consecutive seasons, now looks equally good on his comeback.
And such a Thompson is not yet his best state. If he can get back to his peak level next, then he can definitely bring more help to the Warriors and share more pressure for Curry. That way, the Warriors could also launch a more powerful assault on the championship.
