Would Klay Thompson be as dominant if he played thirty years ago? Well, according to a former All-Star, the answer for the Warriors’ guard is yes.

It’s tough to compare eras, especially since many haven’t watched both in full swing. However, former All-Star B.J. Armstrong had, and he noted Warriors’ guard Klay Thompson as the one player that may most excel back in Jordan’s era.

The 6-foot-2 point guard played with Michael Jordan’s Bulls, winning three titles. At his peak, he neared 15 points per game.
