Warriors' Steve Kerr says Klay Thompson likely to miss season recovering from torn ACL

Golden State Warriors star guard Klay Thompson is unlikely to play at all this season as he recovers from a torn ACL, according to coach Steve Kerr.

Thompson tore the ACL in his left knee on June 13 in Game 6 of the NBA Finals, and Warriors general manager Bob Myers said last month that the five-time All-Star would be sidelined until at least the All-Star break.

But Kerr, during a recent interview with NBC Sports Bay Area, acknowledged that Thompson "realistically" will miss the entire season because of the expected recovery time required for a torn ACL.
