Steve Kerr And Klay Thompson present themselves a few weeks before the resumption with one thing in common: they are preparing to start their last year of contract, without having (yet) been extended.
Currently the third highest paid coach in the league, with $9.5 million per year, does not seem worried or worried by the situation. He imagines the future with the Warriors.
“ I feel very good about my position here and I want to be here. I’m not stressed about it at all. I am perfectly capable of coaching whether I have one year left on my contract or whether I am extended. It doesn’t make any difference, but I expect to be here “, Kerr calmly assures, whose salary could further increase due to the contract signed by Monty Williams.
Klay Thompson has the 12th salary in the NBA
Within the largest payroll in the league, Klay Thompson has the 2nd highest salary on the team, behind Stephen Curry, with $43 million for this final year of his contract. Its extension? “ It’s still early, very early […]. We’ll see if we can have Klay for a very long time. Which is clearly what we want “, owner Joe Lacob recently posted.
“ I think there’s a desire to extend or be back, to make sure these guys are in the group. Both parties are of this opinion “, poster today GM Mike Dunleavy saying to yourself “ optimistic » as for the Californian future of the two men concerned.
He adds : ” When you work on this idea, I think you can find agreement. I hope we get there. » The whole challenge is to know if the negotiations will reach their conclusion before the resumption of the season, so that all the players have peace of mind. On this, the leader says he does not have a timetable “ specific ” to advance.
