Report: Warriors receiving two second round picks in Klay Thompson sign-and-trade with Mavericks
Klay Thompson’s legendary run with the Golden State Warriors is set to come to an end. After 13 seasons with the Warriors, Thompson will reportedly join the Dallas Mavericks on a new three-year, $50 million contract.
Before Thompson can join Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving in the Lone Star State, the Mavericks and Warriors needed to agree to terms on a sign-and-trade. In a multi-team sign-and-trade, the Charlotte Hornets reportedly received Josh Green from Dallas, while the Warriors would receive draft compensation from Dallas.
According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, the Warriors will receive two second-round picks in the sign-and-trade.

The Warriors will also pick up a traded player exception worth just under $16 million that they can use in a future move. The pair of first-round picks are reportedly Dallas’ in 2031 and the least favorable between Philadelphia and Denver in 2025.
