A lot of hypotheticals have to hit just right in order for the Atlanta Hawks to even get in a room with Klay Thompson.
However, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Michael Cunningham reported Tuesday that the Hawks are "confident they'd get a chance to persuade Thompson to sign with them" if the Warriors don't offer him a max contract.
More from Cunningham:
"I heard Travis Schlenk planned to make a run at Thompson as a free agent soon after the Hawks hired Schlenk as GM in 2017. I figured it was just dot-connecting speculation: Schlenk was a Warriors front-office executive when the team drafted Thompson in 2011.
