Klay Thompson's first game with the Dallas Mavericks was a huge success. Klay Thompson had a fantastic debut performance with the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday night, starting the next phase of his NBA career. Thompson played 26 minutes and made an impact on both sides of the court in the team's victory over the San Antonio Spurs, 120-109.
Only Luka Doncic scored more points than Klay Thompson, who finished with 22 points, making him the second-highest scorer of the evening. After playing with the Golden State Warriors for the first 13 seasons of his NBA career, the 34-year-old scored 22 points on 7 of 13 shots. In addition to pulling down seven rebounds and three steals, he made six of ten three-point attempts.
After his impressive performance, the veteran shooter Klay Thompson received a lot of accolades, including a lot of it from his star colleague Luka Doncic. After the victory, Thompson was beaming and seemed to have adapted to his Mavericks teammates rather well. However, Thompson had one infrequent moment that served as an unnoticed nod to the place where his career started. Following the game, Thompson was seen signing autographs and handing one to a fan who had turned over his old Warriors jersey.

Although some felt that Thompson's time with the Golden State Warriors ended negatively when the franchise allowed him to leave in free agency, it is not surprising that he would sign his old Jersey. After all, Thompson was a five-time All-Star for Golden State and won four titles.
The NBA's history was shaped by the "Splash Brothers" of Stephen Curry and Aaron Thompson. In an attempt to win a sixth NBA Finals championship, Thompson and his star teammates Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving will now try to guide the Mavericks to another run.
