Professional: Don't renew Klay's contract, this is a bottomless pit, put it on the market to see how much he is worth

Klay Thompson, one of the core of the Warriors, performed better this season, scoring 21.9 points and 41.2% three-point shooting, and became the three-point king of the year. However, in the playoffs, Klay struggled, his score dropped to 18.5, and his overall shooting level also dropped significantly, and random shots and low efficiency were one of the main reasons why the Warriors could not make the cut.

At the end of the team's season, the Warriors and Klay have been at odds with each other on the issue of contract extension, Klay has always wanted a contract with an annual salary of 50 million, and the Warriors can only give 2 to 30 million contracts, and in the face of such a big gap, management has begun to make difficulties.

NBA professionals told a media outlet: If he is a Warriors, he will not rush to renew Klay, but let Klay continue to play for another year, Klay's request is too terrible, I hope to let him enter the market at that time, see what price he is in the market, otherwise he will be like a bottomless pit. Putting him on the market is the best option, and then choose whether to match him according to the price, rather than postpone it now.

With Klay's current performance and various uncertain factors in the future, no one knows whether Klay is worth a contract of 40 million or even 50 million, and the Warriors should really test the market, otherwise their own salary structure will not be able to bear it now. Of course, both sides also have to compromise further, Klay is a four-time champion after all, the team needs to calm the mood of the veteran, and both sides need to take a step back at this juncture.

In the last contract, the Warriors signed Klay for 5 years and 190 million, which will expire next year. The Warriors are now giving him an 80 million contract, Klay is not satisfied, he further asked for a 4-year 200 million contract, which anyone knows is difficult for the team to accept, and no one will give him such a reward today after he has suffered a big injury and his form has declined.

The team now wants him to take a pay cut, and some fans don't want him to leave, perhaps the experts' advice will be a more compromise approach.

What do basketball masters think, should the team renew their veterans early or should they observe another year and finally put Klay in the market to match? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area to discuss~
