How Klay Thompson's hot hand and patience are fueling Warriors' five-game win streak SAN FRANCISCO — Nothing about Klay Thompson’s approach changed, he insists. But the numbers certainly have.
Dominant from deep as top scorer Thompson had 28 points (11-16 FG, 6-10 3Pt) and three rebounds in 31 minutes during Saturday's 126-106 win over the Trail Blazers.
Impact Thompson led all Warriors in threes made while finishing with a team-best scoring total and ending two points short of the 30-point mark in a winning effort. Thompson has connected on five or more threes in seven games this season, including in three of his last four outings. He has tallied at least 25 points three times, all of which have taken place over his last six games.

Picks up slack with 28 points Thompson notched 28 points (11-16 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal in 29 minutes during Sunday's 118-114 win over the Trail Blazers.
Impact Stephen Curry was struggling through one of the worst games of his career, forcing Thompson to put on the gas and shoot the ball more frequently. He found the bottom of the basket in five of 10 attempts from long range and made some mid-range shots for a team-leading total. Thompson's performance followed up an excellent 30-point showing against the Clippers, putting more distance from his tepid outing against the Suns, where he managed only seven points.

Struggles from deep Thompson finished with seven points (2-10 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and five rebounds in 27 minutes during Tuesday's 119-116 loss to the Suns.
Impact Thompson is shooting just 27.9 percent on 8.6 three-point attempts per contest over his last five outings. However, the most alarming part of the veteran guard's performance was Brandin Podziemski and Jonathan Kuminga being in the Warriors' closing lineup ahead of him. With Thompson shooting a career-low 34.3 percent from three and averaging just 15.4 points per game, he could continue to cede playing time to Golden State's youth.

Impact Thompson scored at least 20 points for the first time in the past three games, continuing his underwhelming start to the season. He currently sits just inside the top 200 in standard leagues, averaging 15.8 points and 2.8 three-pointers.
