Add Klay Thompson to the list of skilled athletes who not follow their very own team.

On Friday, Thompson unfollowed the Warriors on Instagram and deleted a lot of his team-related posts – a tactic not unusual in modern sports.

Just this spring, wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk unfollowed the 49ers on IG, following Deebo Samuel's playbook.

Thompson's move comes just before the 34-year-old veteran enters free agency, an uncertain time for a player who has been instrumental in all 4 of Golden State's NBA championships over the past decade.

Thompson also removed posts from that championship run.

He just accomplished the ultimate season of a five-year, $190 million contract and can officially change into a free agent on June 30.

Eric Pincus of Bleacher Report speculated that the Orlando Magic could give Thompson greater than the Warriors would likely pay. His Crystal ball suggested a three-year contract price $81.9 million.
