Since making a comeback from an extended injury, Klay Thompson has grappled with challenges in rediscovering his on-court rhythm and customary form. His shooting percentages have fallen below his usual standards, and he has struggled to replicate his pre-injury impact.

Despite putting in earnest efforts, Thompson’s performance has not met expectations, sparking concerns about his contribution to the team’s success this season.

Thompson’s struggles, particularly his average of 14.4 points and a 34.3 percent shooting from three, have created a void in the Warriors’ offense.

The absence of Jordan Poole, who played a crucial role in sharing the offensive load, exacerbates this issue. Consequently, the team heavily relies on 35-year-old Stephen Curry, who averages more than twice as many points (30.4) as the next closest Warrior (Thompson).
