Ray Allen compares Warriors veteran to his playing style

Former NBA player Ray Allen believes that Golden State Warriors’ star Klay Thompson reminds him of his own playing style. Despite Thompson’s recent struggles due to injuries, Allen sees similarities in their game.

Thompson, who has been a key player for the Warriors during their dynasty years, is facing a crucial offseason as he becomes a free agent. The team must decide whether to retain him and pay a hefty sum or focus on rebuilding with young talent.

Allen, a Hall of Fame sharpshooter known for his 3-point shooting, praised Thompson’s skills and compared them to his own. Both players excel at moving without the ball and using screens to get open shots, making them deadly threats on the court.

While Thompson’s numbers have dipped in recent seasons, his career 41.3 percent accuracy from 3-point range speaks volumes about his shooting prowess. If the Warriors choose to keep him, they will have to make a significant financial commitment, potentially hindering their ability to rejuvenate the team.

As Thompson’s career progresses, he is likely to secure a spot in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, cementing his legacy as one of the best shooters in NBA history. Whether he remains with the Warriors or seeks a new opportunity, his impact on the game is undeniable.
