The Golden State Warriors still expect that Klay Thompson will finally be able to rejoin the team this season after missing two years with back-to-back brutal injuries.
Thompson, the team said in a statement on Monday, “has made good progress during his rehabilitation over the course of the summer” and should return this season.
Thompson tore his left ACL during the 2019 NBA Finals with the Warriors, and spent the entire offseason recovering. Thompson then tore his Achilles last November while rehabbing his ACL, and missed the entire season.
The team hasn’t said specifically when Thompson will be able to play again, but rather that a specific date would be determined based off his recovery.
