4. Klay Thompson (Buy)

Taken with the 11th pick in the 2011 NBA Draft, Klay Thompson has done enough in the last eight seasons to be remembered as an all-time great member of the Golden State Warriors. Let’s take a look at some of his accomplishments with the Dubs:

  • 5x NBA All-Star
  • 3x NBA Champion
  • 2x All-NBA
  • 1x All-Defensive

It’s safe to say that Thompson is a stud. Coming off a devastating ACL injury in the NBA Finals, Thompson will be out for a few months, but this shouldn’t stop him from earning every penny of the max contract.

Thompson deserves the biggest contract the Dubs can offer. There should be no hesitation to make this move. He has been here from day one and has performed in some of their biggest games to date.

Without a doubt, the Warriors need to retain Thompson. He is the original splash bro and his defensive capabilities can not go undervalued. He might be the second greatest shooter of all-time behind Stephen Curry, and he belongs in Golden State.
