Steve Kerr expects Klay Thompson to play in game one of NBA Finals

By , Reporter
Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr is optimistic that Klay Thompson will be fit to play in game one of the NBA Finals against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr is expecting guard Klay Thompson to be fit for game one of the NBA Finals.

Thompson sustained a concussion after being kneed in the head in his side's victory over the Houston Rockets on Thursday.

The NBA requires that the player has to be symptom-free before he can return to the court, but Kerr is optimistic that Thompson will be ready for action next week.

He told reporters: "He's doing well I'm anticipating he's going to be there.

"I expect him there. Klay's disposition never changes. He's always just mellow and he just sort of takes it all in stride.

"It's good that we have this break, because he has the time to go through what he needs to get through."

The Warriors take on the Cleveland Cavaliers in game one of the NBA Finals next Thursday.
