Golden State Warriors general manager Bob Myers believes Klay Thompson is recovering fine from the ACL injury he suffered in Game 6 of the 2019 NBA Finals. However, he's concerned about one particular thing in Thompson's ACL recovery process.
“As far as I’ve heard, he’s been recovering fine,” Myers said during a conference call Monday, per Drew Shiller of NBC Sports. “There hasn’t been a setback. But one thing that has been a little difficult the last couple of months has been our ability to see those things as much as you might normally would.”
Moreover, even though Thompson has been recovering well from his ACL injury, the Warriors GM still doesn't know if he's 100 percent healthy.
“I don't know,” Myers told the reporters. “I think we got to take a look at him when we see him. There's different versions of 100 percent.
It has been nearly a year since Thompson tore his left ACL. Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 30-year-old guard hasn't been able to see the Warriors' team doctors.
Before the NBA hiatus, Thompson was seen at practices completing running and shooting drills. According to Mychal Thompson, Klay's dad, the Warriors' sharpshooter has been using a private gym in Orange County for individual workouts during this NBA suspension.
Since the Warriors are among the eight teams that will not be part of the league’s resumed season, Thompson won't be playing in live games until the 2020-21 campaign — which is expected to start in December.
