The Golden State Warriors have recalled Klay Thompson and James Wiseman 

Post#1 » by DaeDae » Thu Dec 2, 2021 7:37 pm

Realistically, I'm wondering how soon we will see them. Is Friday too soon?

The rest of the NBA should start to get worried.

Not really newsworthy. Klay is still a few weeks which is roughly the timeline that was expected.

Might not end up being that long, he was cleared to go 100% in a full scrimmage and made his first 18 shots + was reported he looked great. December 20 still does make the most sense from a scheduling standpoint though (follows their road trip).

I am ready for Klay to finally come back. It's good for basketball, and a good story after suffering two horrific injuries at the worst times.

This. Injuries suck, and I absolutely love it when players can come back from them.

Heck, I am a confirmed KD hater, but I think it's awesome that he's back and playing so well. Good for him, great for the NBA.

Hope we get to see the same from Klay especially.
RIP magnumt--you're literally why I'm still here on these boards.
RIP The Hater--keep up the good fight in the great beyond.

If Curry wins the title with 2 G leaguers he's definitely the GOAT.

It will be Xmas.. or really really close to it. Klay might be getting antsy but our record has made it so we have tons of options.

I'm more excited to see Wiseman anyways. With Oubre gone, he's the new dunce-hat-wearer on the team, and we have to find out if anything has clicked in the offseason.

If he's been fully cleared and recalled from the G League, why would you hold Klay out until Christmas? I mean sure they have an awesome record so no need to rush him back, but you're by definition not rushing him back if he's been cleared through that process. It would just be sitting a healthy guy.

Kinda up to Klay too. He said it's a feel thing and when he's ready he'll know.

those 2 returning is the biggest news this month. personally i dont view them getting the warriors over the hump as 70 win title team. they are clearly worse than suns.
Doncic will be goat. Lauri will be his sidekick.

He was only in Santa Cruz to get some scrimmages while the Warriors were in Phoenix.

Coming or going to Santa Cruz doesn’t really mark any phase in his recovery.

Huh? It was the first time he was cleared to go 100% and 5 v 5 scrimmages (and it went extremely well). It was THE monumental point of his recovery. He's likely to get a couple practices in to scrimmage with the team before he plays in a game, but he's officially ready now.

:rockon: All the fantasy basketball players who selected and "wasted" their 10th round pick on Klay. :rockon:

No, he was cleared to go 100% and 5 v 5 on November 17th. He’s been doing it for two weeks before he went to Santa Cruz.

They have also said they want his first game at home. After their game on the 8th, they don’t have another home game until the 20th
