Klay Thompson and the Golden State Warriors reportedly agreed to a five-year, $190 million max contract Monday that represents a showing of good faith in his long-term health.
Connor Letourneau of the San Francisco Chronicle first reported news of the agreement.
Thompson entered unrestricted free agency in an uncertain place after tearing his ACL in Game 6 of the NBA Finals. While he was expected to receive a five-year max contract from the Warriors before the injury, some wondered whether concerns regarding his health would create pause.
The Warriors instead chose loyalty, rewarding Thompson for one of the best team runs in modern NBA history.
