https://thebiglead.com/2018/07/16/lebron-james-kevin-durant-kawhi-leonard-anthony-davis-steph-curry/2/Klay Thompson is ranked #10: "The least-talked-about star on the Warriors is tailor-made for the NBA in 2018. It is nothing short of criminal that the best combination of shooting and defending in the NBA is not allowed to shine brighter. While there is a good chance he remains a Warrior, he should strongly consider becoming the first option somewhere else. Thompson has averaged 20+ ppg four straight seasons."
