Warriors worried but hopeful as Klay set for MRI

Warriors guard Klay Thompson, who suffered a right leg injury in a workout Wednesday in Southern California, will have an MRI on Thursday, Golden State general manager Bob Myers said.

Waiting on an MRI, maybe just a bad scare.
 
When you say pick up game, I think of this.

Confirmed. He's done for the season. He's having trouble staying on the court
 
Saw this last night. Dam
 
Thanks, 2020

Isn't this the exact same scenario as KD? Maybe rushed back from a knee injury and tore the achilles?
 
Goodness I hate to see this. Should they have taken a wing then at #2 overall last night. They got a good guard in the 2nd round but you never know how those work out

No. Not the same.

From reports, he was recovered from his ACL. It's just something that can happen. You can tear an Achilles just stepping off a curb.

If Wiseman was the highest graded player on the board (and he was) then you don't panic and alter course just to fit a positional need. That's the problem many teams make when it comes to drafting high in the lottery. Taking the BPA is always a solid option.

Wiseman is the highest on the board but you still need a wing that can score and be a shutdown defender. We will see

Warriors also have their own pick and the T-Wolves 1st for next years draft which is supposedly really deep and with a lot of wings. After Edwards, there was a sizeable drop off in talent at the wing positions (Melo is a PG). So rather than just reach to take someone just because of a positional need, it was prudent, imo, to take Wiseman.

oh I’m a BPA guy and Klay is hard to replace right now but this draft was loaded with wings. They could have traded down because I heard many teams were trying to get front of the Bulls to take PW. Bulls got a good wing. Young but loaded with talent
