Today at the Mavericks, Klay Thompson was convinced by Kyrie Irving to join the Texan franchise.
A good thing for the team, even if the Lakers tried everything to recruit him, but their offense did not work when the market opened.
After spending his career with the Warriors, Klay Thompson will try to relaunch with the Mavericks for the next three seasons.
The guard signed a nice contract with the Texan franchise, and with the same ambition: to win the NBA championship.
Doable with Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving at his side, although the competition in the West will be very serious.
We find the Nuggets, the Thunder and the Lakers, convinced that they have a squad at the level to win the title.
LeBron James and Anthony Davis are still very motivated, even if the Angelinos have not recruited anyone during free agency to date.
A real surprise for many, but the GM has encountered refusals… including that of Thompson.
The Lakers’ failure concerning Klay Thompson
Quickly before free agency, the Lakers targeted Thompson to strengthen their roster, the latter needing a boost in terms of shooters.
Klay was interested, but going to Los Angeles, still in California, was too similar to the atmosphere of San Francisco. And yet, the Angelinos tried to fill that with a very nice offer.

Andy Kamenetzky: “I know the Lakers really tried to overpay Klay Thompson, but it just didn’t work out.”
According to The Athletic’s Sam Amick, the offer was about 4 years at $80 million, which is more than the Mavericks’ offense, but Thompson really wanted a change of scenery. Frustrating for the Angelinos, although some see it as a relief.
Such a contract for a player who has suffered major injuries, it could have been a real poison.
