Klay Thompson will most likely miss the Golden State Warriors' preseason game against the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday.

The Warriors are taking a “really cautious and conservative” approach to bringing Thompson back into action this preseason.

Thompson did not play in either of the Warriors' games in Japan. 

“Just coming off the two years with the injuries, this is really unique to play a game after 3 1/2 practices so we’re just being cautious and trying to do the smart thing,” Steve Kerr said in Japan.

The guard admitted that he had a "mental block" and did not play pick-up basketball during the offseason.
