The addition of Kevin Durant was going to change how the Warriors’ offense operated. As much as the Warriors wanted to downplay the potential growing pains, many expected Klay Thompson to be somewhat of an odd man out in the star-studded offense.

Through six games, Thompson has been just that. He’s off to a horrid shooting slump from three-point range — at 19.6 percent. Thompson still wouldn’t blame his slump on the addition of Durant.

He told the media during shootaround Monday, via ESPN:

“Not at all. I struggled last year for the first 20 games, and Kevin wasn’t here. So it has nothing to do with Kevin.”

While Thompson pointed to last season’s early struggles, it didn’t come close to his current slump.

Thompson’s 3-point attempts are way up compared to last season’s first six games. He’s already attempted 46 3-point jumpers after taking just 25 at this point last season. He hit 36 percent from 3 in that stretch.

Through the first 20 games last season, Thompson shot 43 percent from 3 while attempting 6.4 3-pointers a game. He’s taken nearly 8 3-pointers a game thus far this season, which would suggest he’s forcing his shot.

Thompson continued:

“So last year I struggled, then I went on a tear, so it’s just like any other season. Obviously we have different players, but I’m still getting the shots I always got before he was here, so it’s not on Kevin at all.”

The Warriors face the winless Pelicans on Monday night.
