Mavericks Not Rushing Klay Thompson Buyout Decision With Other Teams InterestedMar 27, 2026; Portland, Oregon, USA; Dallas Mavericks guard Klay Thompson (31) walks up the court during the second half against the Portland Trail Blazers at Moda Center. "To this point, Dallas has not been looking to find a buyout agreement with Klay Thompson," Fischer said. "The Mavericks have been very resistant, to my understanding, of actually moving forward and agreeing to a buyout with Klay Thompson," Fischer said. "They believe this market that's shaping up for him, the fact that there is some LA interest, the fact that there is Miami interest, there's probably other places that have interest in Klay Thompson as well."
