Scouting report
Backcourt analysisRated 65, Klay Thompson is a deep-bench shooting guard whose value in Backcourt is roster cover rather than regular minutes.
His best fit is the Scorer role, which demands the ball and creates his own shot from anywhere. His mid-range (71), three-point (69) and inside scoring (63) are exactly what that role asks for, and the game rates the match as “Suits him”.
For a shooting guard, his standout attributes are mid-range (71) and three-point (69), in the top 44% and 49% of shooting guards respectively.
The trade-off is speed (57), in the bottom 6% of shooting guards — he can be exposed in transition, so a slower tempo suits him.
Plan his minutes around matchups and blowouts rather than a fixed nightly share. His stamina of 63 means his energy drains quickly, so watch the ENR column.
At 36 he is at or past his peak, so his value is in the seasons he is playing now.
He earns $16.6M a season with a transfer value of $13.9M — expensive for what he delivers.
