The Golden State Warriors' Klay Thompson missed Friday's preseason game against the Washington Wizards and will also sit out Sunday's rematch as the team remains "cautious" with its star shooting guard.
"Just feel more comfortable giving him a little more of a ramp up," head coach Steve Kerr told reporters. "He's just not quite ready to play at this point just based on where, you know, we're so early in camp. We just want to be safe and make sure he gets a good ramp up before he plays in games."
The Warriors and Wizards are taking part in the 2022 NBA Japan Games this weekend.
