After winning four NBA Championships over 11 seasons with the Golden State Warriors, Klay Thompson is headed elsewhere.

According to ESPN‘s Adrian Wojnarowski, Thompson is headed to the Dallas Mavericks on a three-year, $50-million deal with a player option on the final season.

Thompson had four-year offers for more money, but taking less was offset by the chance to win a fifth championship with the Mavs and difference in state taxes. Agent Greg Lawrence of @wassbasketball led Thompson in serious talks with Mavs and Lakers, among others.

It’s the end of an era in The Bay Area, with the “splash brothers” officially splitting up, marking the first time Klay Thompson will be wearing a different jersey.

With the Mavericks having gone to the NBA Finals last season and the playmaking on their roster in the form of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, the sharpshooting guard should get plenty of opportunities to show off his still deadly jump shot.
