The Golden State Warriors have had over 600 players don the more than 60 jersey numbers used by their players over the more than 75 years of existence the team has enjoyed in its rich and storied history.
Founded in 1946 during the Basketball Association of America (BAA — a precursor league of the NBA) era, the team has called home the cities of Philadelphia, San Francisco, Oakland, and even San Diego.
To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Warriors Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team. For this article, we begin with the 11th of 23 players who wore the No. 11 jersey for the Warriors.
That player would be Golden State wing legend Klay Thompson. After ending his college career at Washington State, Thompson was picked up with the 11th overall selection of the 2011 NBA draft by the Warriors.
The Los Angeles, California native played 11 seasons with the Warriors before he was dealt to the Dallas Mavericks in 2024, winning four titles and countless accolades with the team in that span.
During his time suiting up for the Warriors, Thompson wore only jersey No. 11 and put up 19.6 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game.
