I watched the Spurs and Golden State preseason game and Klay was chucking up shots and bricking all of them like the playoffs…. Do ya think he ever coming back? I feel bad for the guy.

It is natural to age into a backup role. Klay is entering that realm and he should embrace it along with the Warriors. His best contributions would come as being part of the second unit and his contract extension should reflect the smaller role. $20-23 million range per season is fair. He can become a microwave scorer off the bench and allow team defense to cover his declining athleticism.
