The Warriors have been a completely different team after Thompson went down with a torn ACL in the 2019 NBA Finals. The year following his injury, Golden State also lost Kevin Durant to free agency and Stephen Curry to a broken hand, which caused the team to post a league worst 15-50 record during the year of the coronavirus.
