Warriors still plan to offer Klay Thompson a max contract

OAKLAND – The Warriors face plenty of uncertainty on how long it will take for Klay Thompson to heal an ACL in his left knee. They do not have any uncertainty on how much they feel about him.

Therefore, the Warriors view Thompson the same way they view Kevin Durant, who might be out for all of next season while healing a right Achilles tendon. The Warriors plan to offer both of those players max contracts once they become free agents this summer.

“We value those guys at the highest level,” Warriors general manager Bob Myers said.
