Kyrie Irving's teammate in the Dallas Mavericks made a huge confession qualifying him as an "underrated player". The Dallas Mavericks are well known for their high-scoring prowess, with stars like Luka Doncic and now Klay Thompson playing key roles in that offensive firepower.

Thompson, Washington, Exum, Kleber and Edwards did not participate in Sunday’s Fan Jam, while Doncic and Irving served as head coaches of their respective practice squads. Fans expressed their anticipation to see Thompson twice during the open practice by chanting “WE WANT KLAY!”

With the addition of an experienced superstar in Klay Thompson, Kyrie Irving is confident that the Dallas Mavericks could win the 2025 title.

Klay Thompson and Kyrie Irving are among the Dallas Mavericks who will not play in the team’s preseason opener on Monday night against the Memphis Grizzlies. Thompson and Irving are out for “rest,” as teams are often cautious about stars’ playing time in the preseason.
