On July 2, Beijing time, the NBA free agency market has opened, in which the Suns are not expected to choose to trade Nurkic, who is a good fit for Buden's offensive system, and the Los Angeles Clippers offered Paul George a three-year contract and are unwilling to give the trade veto. Just today, goodbye superstar LeBron James, the Dallas Mavericks reached a three-for-one deal, and four-time championship scorer Klay Thompson officially teamed up with Doncic and Kyrie Irving, the last target of the Los Angeles Lakers, and just missed it.
According to the latest report from Woshen, the Dallas Mavericks, who have Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, lost to the Celtics in the Finals and lost to Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, they held their breath and wanted to prove themselves, so when the free market opened this offseason, they operated quickly and decisively. It should be emphasized that in order to be able to bring in Klay Thompson, the Dallas Mavericks reached a three-for-one deal with the Golden State Warriors, sent Josh Green and two draft picks, and sent a three-year, $50 million contract with an annual salary of only about $16 million.
It is worth mentioning that Klay Thompson is an extremely good shooter, playing for the Golden State Warriors in the 2023-2024 season, playing a total of 77 games in the regular season, averaging 17.9 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game, with a shooting rate of 43.2%, playing in this team for thirteen seasons, helping Stephen Curry, Dream Green, and head coach Kerr win four championships, and have been selected for the Western All-Star Game many times, scoring 37 points in a single quarter, and successfully subduing Kevin Durant, Let the latter turn to the Golden State Warriors, get the two championships he wants, the Finals FMVP, and wear the ring.
You must know that Klay Thompson joined the Dallas Mavericks and officially teamed up with Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, which is not good news for the Los Angeles Lakers and superstar LeBron James. James Harden renews his contract with the Los Angeles Clippers, Valanciunas joins the Wizards with Kuzma, and Klay Thompson joins the Dallas Mavericks for only $50 million for three years, which is $80 million over four years offered by the Los Angeles Lakers, just because the Warriors don't want Russell.
Now, with the Dallas Mavericks reaching a three-for-one deal, with a rotation player Josh Green, two unimportant draft picks, to get Klay Thompson, a four-time championship shooter, to join, here we must congratulate Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, the new season will get more offensive space, because if the former is not allowed to three-point, no one dares to let him go. It should be noted that Thompson's joining the Dallas Mavericks means giving up teaming up with LeBron James, saying goodbye to the latter here, going to get the top salary, paving the way for Bronny, and Pelinka's ability to recruit is not good.
