Warriors Head Coach Steve Kerr Breaks the Internet With Latest Klay Thompson Injury Update

As we enter the first week of December, the Dub Nation is on the edge of its seats. The Splash Brothers are finally about to reunite as the return of Klay Thompson is just around the corner. While most expected Klay to return around Christmas, it seems like we can be optimistic about the possibility of his early return. At least from what the Golden State Warriors are exposed to the public about their tactics and plays on the court, it seems Klay’s return is on the top of their play tactics.

This is what Head Coach Steve Kerr revealed about Klay Thompson’s return that essentially broke the internet.

Steve Kerr’s latest update on the return of Klay Thompson

While talking about the team’s approach to the Suns putting the clamps on Stephen Curry, he revealed how it would affect shot openings. In that, he mentioned how the team’s plans in the near future very much include Klay.

He said, “But you know when teams are going to commit people to Steph, the way that Phoenix did, then there’s gonna be openings you know? There’s gonna be openings for Jordan, openings for Otto. Those guys you know knocked down a bunch of threes. The openings for Klay Thompson that’s gonna be fun yeah. So you know like I said a lot lots to look forward to.”

What does this mean for Klay Thompson and the Warriors?

After the footage of Klay Thompson’s game-winning shot in scrimmages went viral, fans are very hopeful about Klay’s return. He looks fit to play and is on the verge of completely being match fit. This is a good sign for the Warriors as Suns were able to shut them down last night.

Considering that too much focus of the offence goes on Curry, a second option as exceptional as Klay is hard to not be excited about. Will Klay be able to provide just what the Warriors need to restart a winning streak? Let us know what you think.
