Thompson's transition to European basketball came after limited opportunities in North America following his undrafted status in the 2010 NBA Draft and a stint in the NBA Summer League with the Minnesota Timberwolves.[5] He launched his professional career in the 2010-11 Greek Heba A1 with Ikaros Kallitheas, where he adapted to the league's fast-paced, physical style by focusing on efficient scoring and rebounding.

Playing in 10 EuroLeague games, he averaged 8.8 points and 4.1 rebounds in 23.6 minutes, providing frontcourt depth and energy off the bench in a season that emphasized team defense and structured offense.[7] The move highlighted his growing comfort with Europe's emphasis on positional play and shooting efficiency, as he shot 44.3% from the field despite limited minutes.[8] He also won the Slovenian Cup with the team. Thompson joined ALBA Berlin in the German Basketball Bundesliga (BBL) for the 2012-13 season on August 12, signing a one-year deal to bolster the team's interior presence. In 37 league games, he averaged 13.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 1.1 blocks in 26.5 minutes, establishing himself as a reliable scorer and defender in a league known for its athleticism and transition play. His role included stretching the floor with mid-range jumpers and protecting the rim, contributing to ALBA's playoff push while adapting to the BBL's high-intensity defensive schemes. He also won the German Cup that season. The 2013-14 campaign saw Thompson sign with FC Bayern Munich in the BBL, where he played a pivotal role in the team's historic first Bundesliga title. Averaging 10.7 points and 5.2 rebounds across 34 regular-season games, he earned All-BBL Second Team selection for his consistent double-digit scoring and rebounding in a championship run that featured strong team defense and balanced attack.[26] Thompson's ability to switch on defense and hit open shots from the perimeter was key to Bayern's success, culminating in a finals sweep. In March 2015, following his stint in China's CBA, Thompson signed with Hapoel Jerusalem for the remainder of the 2014-15 Ligat HaAl season, immediately impacting their title chase. He helped lead the team to the Israeli Premier League championship, averaging 12.5 points and 6.8 rebounds in the playoffs, including strong performances in the finals series. His physicality and rebounding prowess fit seamlessly into Israel's competitive, rebound-heavy style, securing Hapoel's first title in over a decade. Thompson rejoined Bayern Munich for the 2015-16 BBL and EuroLeague season, providing veteran leadership in 34 league games with averages of 9.8 points and 4.5 rebounds. Despite the team finishing second in the BBL, his defensive contributions and improved three-point shooting (25.0% on limited attempts) underscored his evolution in Europe's multifaceted game.[27] He appeared in 10 EuroLeague contests, adding depth to the frontcourt.[7] In 2016-17, Thompson signed with Galatasaray in the Turkish Basketball Super League. He averaged 5.7 points and 3.8 rebounds in 10 domestic games before transferring to Crvena zvezda in December 2016. With Crvena zvezda, he appeared in 13 EuroLeague games, averaging 4.3 points and 1.5 rebounds, contributing to their Adriatic League championship win.[7] Thompson's 2017-18 season took him to San Pablo Burgos in Spain's Liga ACB, where he excelled as a starter, averaging 11.9 points and 6.7 rebounds over 34 games. Named Liga Endesa Player of the Week in Round 16 after a 25-point, 10-rebound effort against Valencia Basket, he led Burgos to a competitive mid-table finish while embracing the league's technical fouls and pick-and-roll heavy offense.[7] His tenure highlighted his mid-career peak in scoring efficiency and defensive impact in one of Europe's premier domestic leagues. He led the league in total rebounds (229) and rebounds per game (6.7). In 2018-19, Thompson joined Žalgiris Kaunas in Lithuania, where he averaged 6.4 points and 3.5 rebounds in 39 Lithuanian League games, helping the team win the Lithuanian League championship. He also played 28 EuroLeague games, averaging 5.1 points and 2.9 rebounds.[7] From 2019 to 2021, Thompson played for Unicaja Málaga in Spain's Liga ACB and EuroLeague, appearing in 52 EuroLeague games with averages of 7.0 points and 3.6 rebounds. In 2021, he briefly joined Casademont Zaragoza in the Liga ACB, averaging 10.2 points and 5.1 rebounds in 15 games.[6] Throughout these years, Thompson's European journey emphasized honing his three-point shooting (career 30-35% in key leagues) and defensive switching, transforming him from a college post player into a versatile big man suited to FIBA rules and international pace. Key successes like the 2013-14 German Bundesliga, 2014-15 Israeli title, 2016-17 Adriatic League, and 2018-19 Lithuanian League underscored his role in championship teams.Asian and African leagues

Averaging 11.4 points and 8.3 rebounds per game in 29 minutes, he provided veteran stability to the frontcourt during a season that saw the team compete in the league's competitive B1 division. His tenure ended in March 2024, marking a transition to further Asian opportunities built on his established international mobility from prior European stints. Thompson's Asian journey continued in the 2024–25 season with the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters of the Philippines' PBA, signing as an import replacement in late November 2024 for the Commissioner's Cup. In this role, he quickly integrated into the high-energy, physical style of PBA play, delivering key double-doubles such as 22 points and 13 rebounds in a narrow loss to Phoenix and 34 points with 12 rebounds in a playoff-clinching win over Converge. His contributions propelled Rain or Shine to the semifinals, where he averaged strong scoring and rebounding outputs, earning praise as an "underrated" import for his efficiency in pick-and-roll situations and defensive versatility. During the 2025 Philippine Cup, including a 27 points and 11 rebounds performance against NorthPort on January 16, 2025, Thompson continued to anchor the frontcourt with consistent double-digit rebounding efforts. As of November 2025, he remained with the team.[28][29][30][31] Turning to Africa, Thompson signed with Libyan champions Al Ahli Tripoli in May 2025, debuting in the Basketball Africa League (BAL) Nile Conference and contributing to their undefeated group stage run. In six BAL games, he averaged 11.2 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 2.8 assists in 25.2 minutes, with standout performances like 21 points and 14 rebounds in a 115-87 win over Nairobi City Thunder.[32] His rebounding prowess was particularly evident, helping Al Ahli Tripoli secure a 5-1 conference record before he departed prior to the playoffs, where the team advanced but ultimately fell short of the finals after replacing him.[33] This BAL stint extended into the Libyan Division 1 domestic season with Al Ahli, where Thompson's physicality and board work bolstered the team's championship aspirations amid the league's intense, defense-oriented play.[1] At age 37 in 2025, Thompson's sustained productivity across these leagues underscores his career longevity, maintained through disciplined conditioning that allows him to excel in rebounding and mid-range scoring despite the physical demands of journeyman play in diverse regions.[5]International career

He averaged 13.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game with a 15.0 efficiency rating, highlighted by efficient scoring in losses to Mexico (81-92) and Lithuania (93-97) that prevented advancement.[37][49][50][51][52] As of November 2025, no major senior tournaments have occurred, but Thompson's ongoing eligibility positions him for potential involvement in upcoming FIBA events, including Afrobasket 2025 qualifiers.[37] Across FIBA senior events with Ivory Coast, Thompson has maintained strong averages of approximately 12.5 points and 6.5 rebounds per game over 13 appearances, establishing him as a reliable veteran leader who bolsters the team's interior presence and experience.[37][7] His contributions have been culturally significant, embodying a bridge between his American upbringing and Ivorian roots while elevating the national team's competitiveness on the African and global stages.[47]Career statistics and records
