Fantasy Impact:

Warriors fans are elated to hear that Thompson is now cleared to resume training without restrictions,as he returns from tearing his ACL in his left knee just over a year ago. Thompson's recovery has been pretty tight lipped but he is rumored to already be "running, jumping, dunking, and doing just about everything you can do in an individual workout." The next step in his rehabilitation is taking on contact in 3v3 or 5v5 scrimmages but given the current landscape, that will be a challenge for Thompson. However, Thompson expects to be a full on-court participant in all of the Warriors mandatory summer activities. Still one of the best shooters in the NBA, fantasy owners anxiously await his return to the hardwood next season.
