The Warriors have suffered a huge blow ahead of the 2020 NBA Draft. Shams Charania of The Athletic reported that Klay has sustained a lower leg injury. There’s still no timetable for his return as the five-time All-Star is still undergoing a series of tests to know the severity of the injury.
Klay Thompson was unable to place weight on his lower leg injury leaving the gym today, sources said. Everyone is hoping for the best. https://t.co/kcxYJczNmX

There’s still hope that the injury will not keep Klay out for a long time, but Marc J. Spears of The Undefeated gave a hint that things are not looking good in the Warriors camp.
An NBA source in the know about Klay Thompson’s injury simply answered to me: “Not good.”

After this unfortunate news broke out, tons of NBA stars expressed their support for Thompson. The Warriors shooting guard missed the entirety of the 2019-20 season due to a Torn ACL injury, and the whole basketball community is already itching to watch him shoot the lights out again.
LeBron James
Klay and the Warriors defeated LeBron three times out of the four Finals match-ups they had, but the Los Angeles Lakers star only had positive words to say for the former Three-Point Shootout King.
Praying a lot @KlayThompson is cool!! Like it’s super minor.

Paul George
George had his share of health setbacks owing to the horrible leg injury he suffered in a Team USA scrimmage. The Los Angeles Clippers star tweeted out his support for Klay.
