The Oklahoma City Thunder are said to be interested in Klay Thompson according to an NBA insider ahead of Free Agency.
The NBA offseason has arrived for all but two squads, and the NBA Finals is setting up to be finished in short order, this sets up a slew of NBA rumors to churn through before Free Agency kicks off at 5 PM CT on June 30.
"The Warriors hope to keep Thompson while also getting themselves underneath the league’s luxury tax limit, a pair of goals that could both be achievable if Thompson’s salary does not come in too high. Thompson is expected to draw interest from teams with cap space to spend, most notably the Magic, Thunder and Sixers," Deveney reports.Presti has been very clear that the organization checks on everyone, leaving no stone unturned so the pure interest report leaves little to speculate on.
Surrounding Thompson with the perimeter options OKC has and funneling action into Chet Holmgren would make for a lethal combination defensively as Thompson would no longer be required to take on the top assignment.
