Draymond Green says Klay Thompson was likely to seek No. 1 option role

In a recent episode of 'The Draymond Green Show', Draymond Green discussed Klay Thompson's career trajectory, stating that Thompson was 90% likely to leave the Golden State Warriors to pursue a No. 1 option role before his injuries. Thompson, who had built his career as a second option alongside Stephen Curry, suffered a devastating ACL tear during the 2019 NBA Finals, which altered his plans. Recently signing with the Miami Heat, Green acknowledged that while Thompson can contribute through his elite shooting, expectations for him to return to his previous form should be tempered.
