The Golden State Warriors play the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday for the first time since their trade talks in the offseason regarding Kevin Love for Klay Thompson.

"Ultimately, here we are, and this is what we wanted," Steve Kerr said of Thompson, who rather than being traded was signed to a contract extension through the 2018-19 season. "This is what we decided on, and it's worked out.

"I think that's fair to say we all preferred to keep him. He's here."

The Wolves ultimately traded Love to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
