The NBA champion has career stats of playing 11 seasons in the NBA across five franchises, notably, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Chicago Bulls. The Canadian-American star averaged 9.0 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 1.0 assists in 730 games. However, the 31-year-old was a free agent this season. Despite his impressive rebounds skills, Thompson failed to land a contract. Now, he is making his debut again as an NBA analyst.
