Klay Thompson’s departure brings financial relief to Warriors
Klay Thompson’s departure from the Golden State Warriors to the Dallas Mavericks has brought financial relief to the organization. According to Draymond Green. This has allowed the Dubs to utilize the cap space to sign new players and build a competitive roster.
What Klay just did—and nobody will give him credit for—is he just relieved this organization of the financial hardships it was starting to face. He still did it for the organization, but nobody will say that.
