I know he overachieved in his first couple seasons, but I haven't heard as much from him lately. For a young team like Sacramento, it's weird to see someone so young not be in "future plans". At only 25 years old, I wouldn't mind bringing him in since it appears that the return that we would have to send is pretty low. Since Thompson is the anti-Tyrus, and we could use a banger in the paint & on the boards with Mullens, I would be curious as to what Sacramento would want. Would Diaw + be enough? With their financial situation, no way they take T2..... or would they? I think DJ would get it, but don't want to give up Augustin for someone that appears to be a bench player in Sacramento. I guess it also depends on what Thompson wants on his new contract too.
