Even though his time with the Warriors has ended, his best days as a basketball player were the ones he spent with Golden State. He won four NBA titles with the Dubs and got five NBA All-Star nods. Alongside Stephen Curry, Thompson formed arguably the most lethal backcourt duo in the history of the league.
In 793 games played in Warriors threads, Thompson has averaged 19.6 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.3 assists while shooting 45.3 percent from the field and 41.3 percent from range.
