Klay Thompson - Golden State Warriors
It seems like ancient history since Klay was struggling to find his scoring. That's not the case right now. On Tuesday evening, Thompson dropped 43 points, had two steals, two rebounds, and two blocks as the Warriors dominated the Knicks 122-95. Most impressive about Klay's 43 was that he scored mostly off "catch and shoot" plays with very little dribbling.
Klay Thompson dropped 43 PTS tonight. He also only dribbled the ball 4 times.
