Klay’s move to Mavs elicits mixed social media response originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area

It is an emotional day in the Bay Area, as Klay Thompson reportedly is set to leave the Warriors to join the Dallas Mavericks in a sign-and-trade deal, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported Monday, citing sources.

As expected, many Warriors fans took to social media to share their feelings on Thompson’s departure. Reactions ranged from gratitude for helping lead Golden State to four NBA titles to disappointment in his decision to team up with a Western Conference rival.

Other fans and notable NBA personalities expressed excitement at the prospect of Thompson uniting with Luka Dončić and Kyrie Irving in Dallas. Here’s what social media had to say:

Bay-to-Dallas moves I hate:
3. Will Clark to Rangers
2. Charles Haley to Cowboys
1. Klay to Mavericks

I’ll never forget Klay running back on defense minutes after tearing his ACL. Heart of a champion.
