After his junior season, Thompson declared for the 2011 NBA draft, and the Golden State Warriors picked him with the 11th overall pick. The Warriors were rumored to trade starter Monta Ellis when this guard was selected, but that didn’t happen until March 2012.

In a game against the Cleveland Cavaliers on January 29, 2013, Thompson recorded a season-high 32 points. Thompson and Stephen Curry, according to Warriors coach Mark Jackson, were the best shooting tandem in NBA history.

On May 8, 2013, against San Antonio, Thompson scored a playoff career-high 34 points, making 8 of his 9 three-point shots, and grabbed a playoff career-high 14 rebounds.

Thompson and the Warriors agreed to a four-year contract extension on October 31, 2014. He scored a then-career-high 41 points the next day as the Warriors defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 127-104. In a 126-101 victory over the Sacramento Kings on January 23, 2015, Thompson recorded a career-high 52 points, including 11 three-pointers.

In a game against the Los Angeles Clippers on March 8, 2015, Thompson made 3 three-pointers to surpass head coach Steve Kerr (726) on the NBA’s all-time list. He was diagnosed with a sprained ankle on March 17 and given a 7–10 day absence.

In the first seven games of the 2015–16 campaign, Thompson made just 13 of 36 three-pointers (36 percent). Thompson then made a total 32 of 73 attempts from beyond the arc in the final 11 games in November (43.8 percent).

He had a season-high 45 points on 14 of 20 shooting on January 27 in a 127-107 victory over the Dallas Mavericks. He received his second consecutive All-Star nomination the next evening as he was selected as a Western Conference All-Star reserve for the 2016 NBA All-Star Game.

In the first six games of the 2016–17 campaign, Thompson made 11 of 53 three-pointers (20.75 percent). Thompson subsequently shot a total of 39-of-84 threes in the final 11 games of November (46.4 percent).

In addition, Thompson joined Hall of Famer Rick Barry, Naismith Award winners Wilt Chamberlain and Joe Fulks as the only Warriors players to reach 60 points since Barry’s 64 on March 26, 1974.

On October 29, 2017, Thompson became the 11th player in the franchise’s history to surpass 9,000 career points with 29 points in a 115-107 loss to the Detroit Pistons. On December 20, 2017, he defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 97-84 by scoring 27 of his 29 points in the first half and making his first nine field goals.

Thompson failed to produce a 20-point game in his first seven games of the 2018–19 season, shooting 5 for 36 from outside the arc. He went seven games without making multiple three-pointers, a career-worst slump for him.

Thompson chose to remain with the Warriors on July 1, 2019, signing a five-year, $190 million contract with a fifteen percent trade kicker instead of making an All-NBA team, which would have qualified him for a supermax deal like Curry did in 2017.

Thompson said on January 8, 2022, that he would play again on January 9, against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Thompson scored 17 points in 20 minutes upon his return, going 7 of 18 from the field, helping the Warriors upset the Cavaliers 96-82.

When Thompson competed for the United States, he was a part of teams that won gold at the 2016 Summer Olympics and the 2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup. On the 2009 FIBA Under-19 World Championship Under-19 national team, he also captured the gold.
