For the last decade, the Golden State Warriors have been the epitome of dominance in the NBA. They’ve won four of the last nine championships, including back-to-back titles in 2017 and 2018, and they were coming off of a title entering this past 2022-23 season. However, things did not go as planned this past year […]

Golden State Warriors shooting guard Klay Thompson is one of the best shooters of all time. That fact pretty much cannot be disputed.

It’s safe to say that Klay Thompson has had a pretty successful career.

But despite that success, the ‘what-ifs’ still burn deep for one of the greatest shooters in history. […]

The Golden State Warriors failed to defend their 2022 NBA Championship after getting tossed by the Los Angeles Lakers in the second round of the 2023 NBA Playoffs.

The Warriors’ ability to restock […]

Klay Thompson’s season didn’t end exactly as planned.
