When asked about the possibility of being traded, Thompson stated, "I don't partake in NBA discourse on the internet. 


I think that's such a waste of energy." This statement quickly gained traction on social media, resonating with fans and analysts alike (h/t Bleacher Report).


With the Warriors now boasting a 23-25 record in their first 48 games, securing the 11th seed in the Western Conference, the team faces uncertainties amid a roller-coaster season.
