First time Stephen Curry, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson – as a trio – walk into the offseason in April.
They’ve never – in 10 seasons as a trio – missed the playoffs.

Warriors’ Stephen Curry on Draymond Green and Klay Thompson: “I can never see myself not with those two guys. I understand this league changes and there’s so many things that go into it. … I know they want to win and I want to win. That’s all I’m worried about.” – 1:33 AM

Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrews
Draymond Green says he can’t imagine a scenario where the Warriors won’t at least put in the effort to bring Thompson back.
“They’ll make the decision that’s best for the team … I don’t think there’s any scenario where Klay leaves and that’s the best decision for the team.” – 1:09 AM
Ben Golliver @BenGolliver
Warriors’ Draymond Green on Klay Thompson’s future: “I have no reason to think that our ownership group aren’t going to take care of us. … There’s a lot of organizations that will only do what’s best for the organization. This isn’t one of them.” – 1:08 AM
Vincent Goodwill @VinceGoodwill
Draymond on Klay: “We’ve been through incredible highs. Shitty lows. We want to continue what we’ve been doing.” – 1:06 AM

Kylen Mills @KylenMills
Charles Barkley says on TNT that the Warriors need to get younger and signing Klay Thompson would not help with that. Klay may be cheaper now but he won’t get better per Barkley, instead of keeping him they need to focus on adding to the young core. #dubnation1:01 AM

“This is a tough season because everyone is good out there,” Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said. – 1:00 AM

Kings win 118-94 to end the Warriors season in Sacramento, players on both teams show their respect for each other. And Klay Thompson takes it all in before exiting the court, for what could be the final time with Golden State. pic.twitter.com/GzrzrZDzhh12:58 AM

Ben Golliver @BenGolliver
Steve Kerr: “I love Klay [Thompson] so much… I’ve watched him the last couple of years fighting the feeling of devastation from the injuries. I’ve watched him this year flip his season around with his approach… Tonight was tough to see him struggle.” – 12:57 AM
Kylen Mills @KylenMills
“You don’t get to stay on top forever.”
-Warriors Head Coach Steve Kerr says it’s too early to talk about plans for the future or what this summer might look like. He says there’s a lot to think about this offseason, this team fought but just wasn’t good enough. #dubnation12:55 AM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Steve Kerr said it’s too soon to discuss the future of the Warriors but knows questions will come this off-season: “You don’t stay on top forever.”

Steve Kerr: “We’ve got an offseason where we’ve got a lot to think about, for sure.” – 12:54 AM
Kylen Mills @KylenMills
So Chris Paul joins the Warriors and for the first time ever a healthy Draymond Green, Steph Curry and Klay Thompson do not make it to the playoffs. It’s almost like this was his plan all along…………… 🤣 #dubnation12:52 AM

Was this Klay Thompson’s final game as a Warrior? pic.twitter.com/cp3eoCh0Hz12:46 AM

Kylen Mills @KylenMills
Regardless of what happens w/ Klay Thompson, what he did for this Warriors organization was incredible. 4X champ, 5X all star, came back from a torn ACL AND Achilles to win an NBA title while averaging 20+ ppg??? He eats/drinks for free forever in the bay. #dubnation pic.twitter.com/1R91VO85fJ12:41 AM

Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Klay Thompson goes 0-of-10 shooting in Sacramento elimination game and exits to an unknown Warriors future. Here he is walking off the court. Largest GSW offseason question is whether he will wear this jersey again. pic.twitter.com/UEhaufsc0W12:39 AM

Kevin O’Connor @KevinOConnorNBA
Was this the final game of the Steph/Draymond/Klay era for the Warriors? – 12:38 AM
Chris Fedor @ChrisFedor
Incredible run by Golden State. Hard to see it end like *that* for Klay. – 12:36 AM
Malika Andrews @malika_andrews
For just the third time in the Steve Kerr era, the Golden Stare Warriors will miss the playoffs.
Gutsy win for Sacramento, avenging last season’s Game 7 loss to GSW in the first round and surviving for a chance at the 8 seed. – 12:35 AM
Lev Akabas @LevAkabas
Klay Thompson has made 3 of his last 31 shots in the play-in / playoffs for the Warriors – 12:35 AM
The Ringer @ringernba
If you are reading this tweet, you scored as many points as Klay Thompson did tonight 😬 – 12:34 AM
Alok Pattani @AlokPattani
What a rough ending if this is it for Klay in Golden State. Feel better now about going to Sunday’s game, which might’ve been his last home game at Chase Center: 25 Pts (including 6 3PM) in 20 Min, much more vintage Klay-like performance. pic.twitter.com/4wtEwBrsVx12:34 AM

Ben Golliver @BenGolliver
Was this the last time Klay Thompson walked off the court as a Golden State Warrior? pic.twitter.com/NEP0akOdbk12:34 AM

Warriors forward Klay Thompson presumably ends the night without make in 10 field goal attempts and six 3-pointer attempts. – 12:33 AM
StatMuse @statmuse
Klay tonight:
0 PTS
0-10 FG
0-6 3P
His first game without a make since he was a rookie. pic.twitter.com/ntSjQL4fTU12:33 AM

Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrews
Klay Thompson: 0 points on 0/10 FG, 0/6 FG3 in 28 minutes.
Thompson has only gone scoreless under Kerr once (4 times in his career): Nov. 14, 2023 when he was ejected 1:43 into the game. – 12:24 AM
Kamenetzky Brothers @KamBrothers
Klay gave all he had down the stretch to help @Sedano win his fantasy league. Had nothing left for the play in. BK – 12:22 AM
Sean Cunningham @SeanCunningham
Klay Thompson is 0/10 and scoreless through 28 minutes of action tonight. Didn’t think I’d witness that. – 12:22 AM
Tony Mejia @MejiaDinero
Tough to see Klay Thompson have himself a John Starks game in what could potentially be his last game with the Warriors. I thought they would wind up being the 8-seed. Nope – 12:20 AM
Jimmy Spencer @JimmySpencer
Tonight will be a lost memory.
Klay Thompson is a true legend and Hall of Famer for this team.
It’s crazy this could be his final game in the Warriors uniform. – 12:20 AM
Kendrick Perkins @KendrickPerkins
Klay hasn’t made it to the arena yet. – 12:19 AM
Zach Kram @zachkram
Man, Klay can’t go out like this – 12:18 AM

This is tough to watch by Klay Thompson. 0/10, 0/6 3s, no free throws – 12:18 AM

Klay Thompson 0-for-10, including six threes. Wow – 12:17 AM
Vincent Goodwill @VinceGoodwill
Klay has nothing tonight. Absolutely nada – 12:17 AM

Man, Klay Thompson can’t put up goose egg while 0/8 FG in what could be his last game in a Warriors uniform. It’s just not right. #dubnation12:14 AM

Man, three quarters in, Klay Thompson still stuck on zero. 0 for 8, 0 for 4 from 3. Only 12 more minutes of the Splash Brothers? – 12:02 AM
Adam Mares @Adam_Mares
Could very well be the final 12 minutes of the Steph-Klay-Draymond era – 12:02 AM
Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Alright, time to tune into the final 12 minutes of Steph, Klay, and Draymond together. – 11:58 PM
John Gonzalez @JohnGonzalez
really tough time for early-season Klay and Wiggins to reappear – 11:49 PM
Nick Wright @getnickwright
Klay can’t go out like this.
I said earlier today that this would be his last game as a Warrior, and right now it certainly looks like it will be, but he can’t go 0-fer.
Let him get a little run going or something. – 11:47 PM
Dalton Johnson @DaltonJ_Johnson
Wiggins in for Klay – 11:42 PM
Jason Dumas @JDumasReports
Not sure the Warriors can win this one if Klay doesn’t get going. Need something from him. – 11:40 PM

They are THRILLED to be down just 4.
Thrilled. – 11:18 PM

Halftime
*Steph Curry 5 points, Klay Thompson 0.
*Possession battle: Kings 9 offensive rebounds. Warriors 9 turnovers. Shot attempts: Kings 52, Warriors 39.
*But Kings lead went from 16 to 4 because of a Kuminga surge and some 2Q GSW stops.
*Keegan Murray: 16 points – 11:17 PM
Dalton Johnson @DaltonJ_Johnson
A scoreless Klay Thompson in the first half. Only 5 points from Steph Curry. The Warriors will need a Splash Brothers flurry at some point in the second half – 11:15 PM
Jason Anderson @JandersonSacBee
Steph Curry has five points on 2-of-4 shooting and Klay Thompson is scoreless on 0-of-5 shooting with less than a minute remaining in the first half. Kings lead the Warriors 54-46. – 11:11 PM
