One of the biggest nights of the 2024-2025 NBA season is happening on Nov. 12 when Klay Thompson returns to the Chase Center in San Francisco.
Thompson, now with the Mavericks, will face his old team, the Warriors, in a game broadcasted on TNT. This marks his first visit back since leaving as a free agent earlier this year.
Fans and former teammates are sure to feel emotional seeing him again. Thompson spent 13 seasons with the Warriors and helped them win four championships, making them one of the best teams ever.
Homecoming Celebrations:
While there might be some boos, it’s expected to be a respectful event celebrating his time with Golden State. Insiders say that Golden State will play a tribute video for Thompson after retiring his No. 11 jersey to honor everything he did for them.
This return won’t be like LeBron James’ return to Cleveland in 2010 or Kevin Durant’s return to Oklahoma City in 2016โboth faced loud boos from fans. Thompson left Golden State gracefully, thanking everyone for their support during his time there.
In a heartfelt social media post, he told fans not to be sad itโs over but to cherish their memories together and ended with “until we meet again.” Fans might think this is going to be an unforgettable night.
The night they reunite is coming soon and fans should mark Nov. 12 on their calendars ! What do you think about Klay’s big return?
