The Cleveland Cavaliers perfectly outlined how to win an NBA championship with LeBron James on your team. It takes shooting and a lot of it. Klay Thompson, one of the league’s renown shooters, would be the perfect fit next to LeBron James.
Klay doesn’t need the ball offensively to score. He’s better moving without the ball and finding creases through screens where he can spot up from. Against the Rockets earlier this week, all 44 of Thompson’s points were assisted on.
Thompson is averaging 22.1 points per game, the second highest total of his career. He’s doing so while Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry are both also individually tearing it up this season.
