Golden State Warriors star Klay Thompson is one of the greatest shooters in NBA history. He’s a four-time champion and has put up some of the most-amazing performances in the history of the NBA Playoffs.
That’s why it was so hard to see Thompson struggle so bad in Golden State’s ugly 118-94 loss to the Sacramento Kings during Tuesday’s NBA Play-In Tournament.
Having been relegated to bench duties earlier in the season, Thompson was in the starting-five as the Warriors took to California’s capital city in a do-or-die game.
The five-time All-Star proceeded to score exactly zero points while shooting 0-of-10 from the field. You read that right. Klay Thompson scored zero points in what could potentially be his final game as a member of the Warriors. It was ugly in a 118-94 Warriors loss.
With Thompson now set to hit NBA free agency and the Warriors’ season over, attention will soon turn to where he’ll play moving forward in his career. But for now, it was all about the ugly outing we saw from Thompson as Golden State was eliminated in the play-in tournament.
