Thompson said the Heat’s training camp was demanding as Miami added him on a two-year, $11.5 million deal to boost its shooting depth.
- On Tuesday, Miami Heat guard Klay Thompson offered an honest assessment of his first training camp practice, describing the experience as demanding after signing a two-year, $11.5 million contract.
- Miami added the veteran alongside Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo this summer, bolstering their frontcourt to compete in a loaded Eastern Conference with legitimate championship aspirations.
