Mychal:
Portland - 7 seasons (8 counting injured years)
Lakers - 4.5 seasons
Spurs - .5 season

Klay:
Warriors - 11 seasons (13 counting injured years)
Mavs - 2 seasons

This fun fact dawned on me yesterday. Pretty crazy they’ve never left the Western Conference.

My favorite subplot of Klay signing with Miami, though, is that Pat Riley, of course, coached and won two rings with Mychal Thompson and now is signing his son. Just such a cool through line and a testament to how much Pat Riley has done in this league and how long he’s been around.

Will they finish with more total seasons than LeBron and Bronny?

Nope.

I expect that Bron and Bronny will last at least as long as Klay if not longer. The 2 year deal with Miami is going to be Klay’s last contract.

This upcoming season will be the 60th season since Pat Riley joined the NBA as a player in 1967 with the Rockets, who were then based in San Diego.

Mychal and Klay Thompson, between the two of them, have a combined 25 seasons played in the NBA. The 2026-27 season will be the first time either of them has played in the Eastern Conference.
