Pat Riley approves the signing of Klay Thompson by the Miami Heat

Klay Thompson is now officially a player for the Miami Heat. The 36-year-old guard signed a two-season contract, with a player option for the second year, worth about 13 million dollars, after agreeing to part ways with the Dallas Mavericks.

To join Miami, Thompson accepted to give up nearly 10 million dollars, convinced that the team can compete for the title. “I want to compete for the championship,” he explained recently.

Pat Riley highlighted his arrival and described the four-time NBA champion as a complete player on both sides of the court. His main contribution will be, however, his ability to shoot from the outside, which is especially important around Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo.
