Warriors’ mid-game Klay/Wiseman news dump appreciated. Take our mind off whatever this is we’re watching. – 4:27 PM

Warriors coach Steve Kerr said Klay Thompson is scrimmaging back in the Bay Area, while James Wiseman is continuing his rehab work. Andre Iguodala with team on current trip, but won’t be cleared to play. – 2:54 PM

Kerith Burke @KerithBurke
Per Kerr, Klay and Wiseman are not on the roadtrip. Klay is doing 5×5 scrimmages, Wiseman continues his work, Kerr doesn’t think Wiseman is scrimmaging yet, he does not ask team doctors daily. They’ll tell him when Wise is ready for next thing. – 2:07 PM

Malika Andrews @malika_andrews

I wrote this a year ago, and how Klay has handled himself since has only made me believe it more. “Klay and the Warriors’ core are not defined by their good or bad luck, but by what they’ve done with it.” blogs.mercurynews.com/warriors/2020/…1:05 AM

Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrews

Klay Thompson has not left the Warriors’ bench. The remaining fans are chanting THOMP-SON! THOMP-SON! And he was just soaking it in, nodding his head to the chants – 12:28 AM
