Earlier today, it was confirmed that Thompson and the Dallas Mavericks agreed to a three-year $50 million contract, structured around a sign-and-trade deal in which Josh Green was sent to the Charlotte Hornets and the Warriors received two second-round picks (the Mavs’ own 2031 second-round pick and the least favorable of two 2025 picks belonging to the Denver Nuggets and the Philadelphia 76ers).
