Sometimes, all you really need is just one Splash Brother. Sure, two is ideal, but it’s not always necessary. On Sunday night, against a Utah Jazz team that has already turned their attention towards the offseason, the Golden State Warriors only needed one of their Hall of Fame duo. With Steph Curry resting, the Warriors turned to Klay Thompson on Sunday, and he delivered in a big way. It took a few minutes for the Warriors machine to get running, though. Down two starters (Andrew Wiggins was...
When my colleague and I talk about the quality of an NBA Draft class, we do it through a very specific lens: stars, starters and rotation players.

With no Steph Curry in order to allow him to rest — and facing a Utah Jazz team that was on an 11-game losing streak — the scoring reins for the Golden State Warriors had to be taken by either Klay Thompson or the returning Jonathan Kuminga.

Based on his stat line against the Jazz, it didn’t look like he was just warming up: 21 points on 9-of-11 shooting from the field. He scored with his typical...

LATEST April 16, 9:30 p.m. Klay Thompson finished off the Warriors’ 118-94 loss on Tuesday by going 0-for-10 from the field, and 0-for-6 from 3-point range, which is not only the worst postseason performance of his career, but it’s perhaps the worst postseason performance in franchise history, as Josh Dubow of the Associated Press notes.
