The Golden State Warriors' biggest problem in the 2024 offseason is how to renew Klay Thompson's contract. Klay Thompson's five-year, $190 million max contract has come to an end.

However, according to the latest reports, the Golden State Warriors are offering Klay Thompson a two-year contract at most and are not willing to give him a long-term contract of more than three years. Moreover, the annual salary of this contract will not exceed $25 million.

Klay Thompson faced the ruthlessness and unrighteousness of the Golden State Warriors, and he no longer tolerated it, and directly deleted the official account of the Golden State Warriors. As the NBA draft unfolds, the call for Klay Thompson to leave the Golden State Warriors is growing.

There are many fan media calling for Klay Thompson to join teams such as the Clippers, Lakers and Magic. American media "Fadeaway World" proposed that the Clippers take Klay Thompson, which can strengthen their stable outside threat, or they can give up Paul George's maximum salary extension request.

Golden State Warriors send: Klay Thompson

The Warriors lost Klay Thompson for the first time and continued to build a championship-worthy roster around Stephen Curry

Are Golden State Warriors and Klay Thompson really going their separate ways? It depends on how the Golden State Warriors convince Klay Thompson, after all, Klay Thompson is a four-time champion, and once he leaves, it is almost impossible for the Golden State Warriors dynasty to restore.

However, even if Klay Thompson is abandoned, for the Golden State Warriors, it will only enter a post-Big Three era ahead of schedule, and they will have to experience such a situation sooner or later. Klay Thompson's big contract with the highest salary, the Golden State Warriors really won't give it, after all, the luxury tax of nearly $200 million last season can't get into the playoffs, and it must be open source and throttle.

Norman Powell, who averaged 13 points per game, to replace Klay Thompson, is definitely a good choice. Moreover, Norman Powell shot 43.5 percent from three-point range last season. Good quality and cheap and can save money, this deal can be said for the Golden State Warriors, why not!

The Clippers are preparing for Paul George's departure in advance

In order to refuse to give Paul George a big contract with a maximum salary, he wants to get a big contract with the same maximum salary as Leonard. However, when Leonard is healthy, he is absolutely supergiant, and it is difficult to have a bad performance.

Getting Klay Thompson and renewing the contract to keep James Harden will make the Clippers' guard line offensive more threatening. Because Klay Thompson is an excellent fixed-point pitcher, partnering with James Harden will benefit a lot. However, the Clippers can give him a contract of around $80 million for three years at most.
