Confirmed: Magic are bringing him back

Klay Thompson, the shooting guard for the Golden State Warriors, has been connected to the Orlando Magic as speculation regarding his future persists.

Over the summer, the 34-year-old and the Dubs agreed to a two-year, $48 million contract deal. But thus far this season, Thompson has not impressed for Golden State.

Thompson has been shooting the three point arc and the floor at percentages that are below his career average. Because of this, last week against the Utah Jazz, Warriors coach Steve Kerr started him off the bench for the first time since his rookie campaign.Amidst all the rumors, Marc Stein reported that the Magic may be preparing to make a bid. A move to Orlando can be advantageous for both parties, as the Magic lack three-point shooting but have plenty of defensive pieces. Golden State owner Joe Lacob stated that the team plans to get below the luxury tax line next season, which sparked rumors about a potential move for Thompson.
