Warriors testing out a bunch of different lineups in this first half. Just went on a burst with a Curry, Klay, Poole, Kuminga, Draymond five. Three Kuminga dunks within a couple minutes. One-hand putback and a couple well-timed slashes set up by Klay/Curry. He’s playing well. – 11:10 PM

Klay Thompson will about 16-18 minutes through two spurts in the first half. The rest of the starters will play a near regular-season minutes. Draymond Green will see a few minutes less than the others. – 8:21 PM

Marc J. Spears: “I feel amazing. I don’t take this time for granted playing October basketball,” Warriors guard Klay Thompson said after his first preseason game. Klay added: “I wasn’t just dancing on a boat. I was really working.” -via Twitter @MarcJSpears / October 15, 2022
Anthony Slater: Two Klay Thompson stints in his preseason debut tonight. Both in the first half. Should be around 16-18 minutes total. Rest of starters could get a near regular season minute total. Steve Kerr said they may close game if opportunity presents. -via Twitter @anthonyVslater / October 14, 2022
Anthony Slater on Klay Thompson: He’s extension-eligible now too. He’s the fourth of these really big pillars that could’ve come calling for a contract. That hasn’t really happened. There’s been no buzz about that. He’s on a big deal around $41 million this year. He’s in a wait-and-see mode. He wants to see if he can play himself into another big deal. The training staff has told him typically year two off an Achilles or ACL is the better season than year one. He had a good Finals. He defended better than he had in the playoffs. The shot is still there. He can’t defend Ja Morant like he did when he was 28. The lateral quickness has been sapped by the injuries. He’s a local legend. This fan base does not want to see Klay Thompson wear another jersey. They’re so far away from him being a free agent, and so many decisions have to happen with Poole, Wiggins, and Draymond. I think they’re in wait-and-see mode. What will Klay look like two years from now? I don’t think anybody knows. He wants to prove he’s somewhere near where he would be. -via HoopsHype / October 14, 2022
