The Clippers, Lakers and Mavericks will be strong contenders for Klay Thompson, per @ShamsCharania (nytimes.com/athletic/56034…).
Golden State is open to participating in sign-and-trades to help Thompson as well.

Obviously, Klay Thompson has a connection w/ Lakers (father being broadcaster/former player Mychal Thompson) & grew up in LA, but I’d be shocked if he passed on signing w/ the Mavericks.
Who knows: Maybe he’s always wanted to rock a Lakers jersey.
Let it not be the Clippers… – 5:50 PM

The Mavs being in on Klay Thompson surprises me a bit. Derrick Jones Jr. was so important to their identity last year. You’d be incredible offensively with Klay in his place, but letting him go means fundamentally changing who you are as a team right after reaching the Finals. – 5:49 PM

Paul George opting out boosts already high likelihood he chooses between Clippers and Sixers. Clips have advantage – for now – per source.
This gives Klay Thompson leverage with Warriors, who dread the idea of Klay and CP3 walking without a star coming in. – 5:12 PM

With 11 players on the roster, the Nuggets currently have about $170.39 million committed to 2024-25. The first luxury tax apron line is $178.65 million, so Denver has about $8.26 mil in space.

The latest Klay Thompson update via @wojespn indicates he’s likely to leave the Warriors:
– There’s been little communication between Golden State and Thompson throughout this process, which includes no actual offer to him.
– Thompson could be on the move via sign-and-trade, pic.twitter.com/CvbU4LX0su – 9:15 AM

More on this storyline
Marc Stein: As we’ve been reporting for 24-plus hours: Klay Thompson’s departure from the Golden State Warriors looks increasingly imminent … with LeBron James hopeful, per league sources today, that the Lakers can mount a bid to challenge Dallas. Friday’s story: https://marcstein.substack.com/p/more-new-twists-in-the-looming-free -via Twitter @TheSteinLine / June 29, 2024
Golden State is operating in the marketplace as a full nontaxpayer midlevel exception team for the first time in approximately a decade due to the anticipated departure of Thompson and the potential departure of Chris Paul’s $30 million non-guaranteed deal, league sources said, which sheds $73.2 million from its books. -via New York Times / June 29, 2024
