25/06/2024 Raymond 0

The future of Klay Thompson as a free agent is a looming question for the Golden State Warriors. General manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. expressed the team’s desire to retain Thompson, stating, “We want him back.” Despite this, negotiations between Thompson and the Warriors have stalled, with no discussions or offers currently on the table. Thompson, a five-time All-Star, has averaged 17.9 points per game last season but is considering his options, with teams like the Orlando Magic and Philadelphia 76ers showing interest. Signs suggest Thompson might be looking for a new start, as he has removed references to the Warriors from his social media and there have been hints of negotiation difficulties. Mike Dunleavy acknowledged the challenge of balancing business and personal relationships, emphasizing the need to find a role and financial arrangement that benefits both the franchise and Thompson.

If passed, this bill would authorize the Department of Commerce to engage in negotiations with sports teams, although direct communication with the teams by lawmakers has yet to occur.
