If I were the Pistons I’d kind of rather just YOLO a short-term Klay Thompson offer than take on the Hardaway contract.
Like, if you need shooting and to reach the salary floor might as well sell some tickets while you’re rebuilding. – 10:55 AM

The Magic and Mavericks are now viewed as the most likely destinations for Klay Thompson, per @DKSportsbook:
Magic = +150
Mavericks = +200
Warriors = +400
The end of an era in Golden State might actually be happening soon. pic.twitter.com/SRGeiz9LLI – 6:57 AM

If there is no 11th-hour rebound from the Warriors with Thompson and if the Mavericks successfully secure his free agent commitment after the marketplace officially opens Sunday at 6 PM ET, it is not immediately clear if a sign-and-trade could be negotiated … or if Dallas would also be able to retain sufficient financial pathways to likewise re-sign Derrick Jones Jr -via marcstein.substack.com / June 28, 2024
Evan Sidery: Klay Thompson is looking elsewhere as the relationship between he and the Warriors might not be repairable, per @anthonyVslater (podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…). There is a feeling a split might be best for both parties as Thompson has felt slighted by Golden State in this process. pic.twitter.com/k1No8EJ9s6 -via Twitter @esidery / June 28, 2024
League sources tell The Stein Line that the Dallas Mavericks, with some newfound financial flexibility after securing the Tim Hardaway Jr.-to-Detroit trade that I wrote about Tuesday (see the full Twitter thread here), are another team intent on exploring the feasibility of signing Thompson once he makes it to free agency. -via marcstein.substack.com / June 28, 2024
