Klay Thompson to Mavericks

Mark Haynes @markhaynesnba
What are your thoughts on Klay, Luka, and Kyrie? – 2:34 PM

Evan Sidery @esidery
Klay Thompson is joining the Mavericks via sign-and-trade, per @ShamsCharania.

Time and fandom are weird things – it hasn’t even been 24 hours and I’m already pouting right past Klay … like already full “move on” mode.
Feel like I’m waiting on Deron Williams to post a Nets logo again. – 1:29 PM

Lakers emerge as another potential landing spot for Klay Thompson warriorswire.usatoday.com/2024/06/30/lak… pic.twitter.com/eC8zmX67K7 – 1:00 PM

Michael Dugat @mdug
At this point, it feels like we’re just giving Klay more time to work out an internal rationalization that works for signing with LA – 12:25 PM

Michael Dugat @mdug
Also, I’ll believe the Mavs can win the heart of a FA that the Lakers are pushing full-on for when it happens … that’s where I am on Klay.
The longer it takes, the less likely the Mavs are.
Maybe Mavs fans are jaded, but it’s been earned – 10:24 AM

Jon Krawczynski @JonKrawczynski
Clips, Warriors and Nuggets have all lost or are losing key pieces w/o much or any compensation. OKC is significantly better. DAL (Marshall for DJJ and we’ll see on Klay) is TBD. NOP adding Murray should help. West will likely see changes to the hierarchy, but TOUGH as ever – 10:17 AM

Michael Dugat @mdug
Don’t know if there are any names the Mavs could begin to miss out on while waiting on Klay — but I don’t think, at 34, he’s not worth missing out on other avenues (if they’re there).
This FO seems to be much better about doing mult things at once, but I wouldn’t wait too long – 9:52 AM

Michael Dugat @mdug
Maybe it doesn’t matter – but I like the fit of Klay so much better off the bench, though that’s clearly not the Mavs plan at the moment. – 9:49 AM

LeBron James called Klay Thompson when free agency began to discuss him potentially joining the Lakers, per @wojespn.

Updated Dallas with Naji Marshall
Klay Thompson scenario
1. Move out a salary in the $13M range

Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
With the Marshall signing, Mavs project as $10m below the 1st Apron hard cap. They have a $16m TPE from the Hardaway trade to get Klay, but would have to clear other money 1st. Josh Green or Kleber would fit into a team’s MLE in a trade. – 10:12 PM

Marc Stein @TheSteinLine
Dallas pivoted to signing Naji Marshall, league sources say, after
unexpectedly conceding tonight that it likely would not have the wherewithal to retain Derrick Jones Jr. while the Mavs focus on the sign-and-trade pursuit of Klay Thompson. ESPN first reported Marshall deal. – 10:08 PM

Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS
If Derrick Jones Jr. is getting more than the MLE and Dallas can’t legally match, ok, I get it.
If they actively chose Naji Marshall (or, indirectly, Klay Thompson in a sign-and-trade) over DJJ, I just disagree with that. They really need his point-of-attack defense. – 10:05 PM

For a newbie NBA reporter trying to find new/interesting things to write about the Warriors, Klay Thompson was the gift that kept giving. Here were a few of my favorite stories on one of the most unique people I’ve ever met: – 8:58 PM

Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen
As NBA free agency begins, a familiar face is leaving Warriors as Klay Thompson will be on the move. Though an expected move that will not have the impact of other free agent deals, it feels like the official end of an era. houstonchronicle.com/texas-sports-n… via @houstonchron – 8:50 PM

So it’s down to Klay or Jonas?? – 5:53 PM

Chris Paul was expected to be waived unless a major trade came along.
The Golden State Warriors are now $24.5 million below the $170.8 million luxury tax with 11 players.
They’re set to avoid the luxury tax for the first time since 2019-20 with Klay Thompson expected to depart. pic.twitter.com/7Yp3Hfq0DV – 5:43 PM

Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
Klay Thompson hits the free-agent market in 50 minutes. Mavericks in hot pursuit. Warriors exploring sign-and-trade options, which would mean more $$ potential for Klay. Stay tuned nbcsportsbayarea.com/nba/golden-sta… – 5:10 PM

Anil Gogna @AnilGognaNBA
If the Lakers want to open up the full $12.9M NTMLE to sign someone like Klay, Harden or Valanciunas, they’d only have $33.5M left for LeBron – about $16M below his max.
In that scenario, they’d likely try to trade away some salary to open up more money for LeBron. – 4:13 PM

There is optimism in Dallas that Derrick Jones Jr. will be re-signed even if the Mavericks win the Klay Thompson Sweepstakes, league sources say, with Quentin Grimes poised to replace Josh Green if Green must be dealt away for Thompson.
