Is ‘Pissed’ Klay Thompson Seeking Warriors Revenge? Mavs Tracker

Klay Thompson, via ESPN's Kendra Andrews, will likely argue they didn’t try hard though.

“Klay wants to feel respected, appreciated, and valued,” Andrews reports.

And so he’s working on moving on, with the Mavs and Lakers on his radar.

In fairness. the Warriors made an effort last summer as they offered Thompson a reported two-year, $48 million extension.

With Dallas (or the Lakers), he’ll likely make $17 million per year. But he might have something in his account …

The desire for revenge.

JULY 1 MAXEY GETS MONEY!

Following the Philadelphia 76ers' success in signing Paul George, Daryl Morey flexed his basketball mind as Tyrese Maxey agreed to a five-year, $205 million contract extension.

The 76ers core of Joel Embiid, George, and Maxey look to make their first NBA Finals run. This probably means Maxey won't attend any Dallas Mavericks games as a fan anytime soon.

JUNE 30 TOBIAS TO DALLAS?

Before Tobias Harris can come to Dallas, the Mavs have to go to L.A.

Harris, 31 and a 13-year NBA vet, is according to the Philadelphia Inquirer, conducting four interviews in SoCal (where so many agents do this business) as free agency opens on Sunday night.

Dallas, the Spurs, the Jazz and the Pistons are the four teams, per the report.

Tobias averaged 17.2 points, 6.5 rebounds and 3.1 assists this past season.

JUNE 30 WEMBY HELP

The Spurs have a plan ... that could shake things up in the West.

The Golden State Warriors - as we recently suggested earlier this weekend in this space - are working with Chris Paul in a way that might put him in play for the Spurs ...

A concept now confirmed by our pal Marc Stein, who is reporting on Sunday afternoon that the Spurs have a "strong interest'' in finding a way to lure the veteran point guard to San Antonio ... as all involved try to find an affordable way to separate him from the Warriors.
