NBA News Update: Golden State Warriors unsure of Klay Thompson’s availability
As previously mentioned, Klay Thompson was very cautious in his rehabilitation and had stated clearly that he would not force himself to return early.
While an ACL injury takes as much as 6 to 8 months to heal, it has now been over 13 months since Thompson hurt himself. The Golden State Warriors are set to return to the Chase Center for the squad to participate in some team workouts but it is not clear if Klay Thompson will be present there.
Coach Steve Kerr said he had met his star guard a couple of times over the summer and was extremely happy with the way he was looking in his individual workouts.
However, the three-time NBA champion with the Golden State Warriors could not confirm the exact date of his return and didn’t sound too optimistic about his chances of making it to the team workouts.
