The Golden State Warriors and Klay Thompson appear at odds, as Thompson made clear with his recent social media activity. The star guard unfollowed the Warriors on Instagram and removed nearly all team-related content from his page, including photos from their 2022 championship.

This move comes as the four-time championship winner is set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer, seeking a new contract. However, the Warriors are under pressure to reduce their payroll, complicating the situation.

Despite not being the dominant player he once was, Thompson remains a valuable asset for any team aiming to bolster their roster. While it is still uncertain where Thompson will land, his availability as a free agent will surely draw significant interest from teams across the league.

Shams Charania of The Athletic reported in May that there is mutual interest between Klay Thompson and the Orlando Magic. This suggests that the Magic might be a potential destination for the veteran shooter.

Recently, Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports revealed that the Philadelphia 76ers are also closely watching notable names, including Thompson. This indicates that multiple teams recognize the potential value Thompson could bring, even in a more limited role than his prime years.

Klay Thompson’s Instagram Purge Leaves Fans Uneasy

Fans are beginning to sense the end of an era following Klay Thompson’s latest social media activity. It’s not unusual for players to unfollow their team when trade discussions don’t meet their expectations, but Thompson’s actions have particularly alarmed many.

Numerous fans have expressed frustration over Thompson’s move, finding it unexpected and unsettling. They had not anticipated such a development at this time.

Klay Thompson’s performance in the Warriors’ Play-In Tournament elimination against the Sacramento Kings in April was one of his worst. He went scoreless on 0-of-10 shooting. In light of his recent social media activity, some fans have started trolling him by referencing this disappointing game.
