We have been waiting for the results of the M R I for Clay Thompson.

Adrian Ward Janowski with us.

What can you tell us?

Watch the worst possible news for the Warriors.

Klay Thompson has suffered Ah, full terror of his right Achilles.

He will miss the entire season he missed last season with an a C l tear in his left knee.

This is his right Achilles.

But he had the imaging today in Southern California and Clay Thompson.

Uh, now you're looking at a you know, 8 to 10 month rehab.

Hey, will miss the entire season.

And again, this happened when he was playing a pickup game in Southern California.

When you look was because we were just talking about it during the commercial break.

This franchise was as high as you could get for four or five years when they were winning titles.

Now what for the warriors and Clay?

Yeah.

This was a team that thought they were gonna go right back into contention in the Western Conference.

Picked up Andrew Wiggins at the trade deadline last year.

Drafted James Weissman last night.

You know, they have some remedies financially uh, that they could go out and do some things in the next week.

But you're not replacing Clay Thompson.

They have a $17 million trade exception.

Uh, that would would cost them three times that to use any part of it.

Eso They could do some things here to go out, and it is a very weak market for shooting guards.

But I think anything they do with this year, you're looking at a stopgap move.

You know, this is a team greatly diminished without the loss of, you know, obviously one of the two Splash brothers.

You know, friend, be fans out there.

Maybe Warriors fans watching us.

Maybe a comparable everyone knows His former teammate in Golden State, Kevin Durant, had the same injury.

What do we know about Durant?

Rehab?

Maybe to give people in Golden State a little bit of hope.

Well, anybody who's watched Kevin Durant since he's recovered with the Nets, he has looked great by all accounts, uh, coming off of his Achilles injury.

I'm sure Clay will will lean on Kevin Durant, but Clay Thompson has an Achilles injury on top of an A C l tear, so he's gonna miss two full seasons of N B.

A competition on bond.

This is one of the most popular players in the league, really one of the, uh, pre eminent athletes in Bay Area history.

This is a huge blow.

Well, you know, you've been waiting for that in addition to everything else going on, but again, the breaking news Clay temp Clay Thompson has ruptured his Achilles tendon.

He will miss the season, won't thank you so much.

This is such a bummer for Clay and everyone involved because the Splash Brothers air so great to watch.

But Curry and Clay they made nearly 4000 threes.

His teammates, that is, by far the most my teammate do an MBA history that, according to Elias, more than 1000 ahead of Stefan Draymond.

We missed them.

Ah, lot last season and again this season, we will be without the Splash Brothers.

Because of Clay, Thompson ruptured his Achilles.
