Injured Warriors Klay Thompson and James Wiseman have made “good progress” and are “on pace to return for the 2021-22 season,” the team’s PR department tweets.
Thompson, who underwent surgery on his torn right Achilles on Nov. 25, is expected to participate in various controlled drills during training camp. His return to full practices will be determined at a later date.
There has been speculation that Thompson will return to action around Christmas time if all goes well.
Wiseman, who underwent surgery for a right meniscal tear in mid-April, is expected to participate in individual shooting and other individual on-court activities during camp. His return to full practices will be determined after Oct. 15, when he’s expected to begin full jumping on the surgically repaired knee.
Wiseman, the No. 2 pick in the 2020 draft, has seen his name thrown into trade rumors, particularly involving disgruntled Sixers star Ben Simmons.
