Another excellent scoring night Thompson notched 28 points (10-21 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Monday's 128-120 win over the Thunder.
Impact Thompson hit double-digit field goals, including another six threes, in his second straight game. His 28 points were second only to Stephen Curry for the Warriors. The veteran guard has failed to score at least 24 points only twice since before Christmas. It's worth noting he still sits games for injury management (Achilles), and the Warriors do have a back-to-back coming up this week as well as another one just before the All-Star break.

Sitting out Friday Thompson has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Cavaliers due to right Achilles tendon injury management.
Impact Thompson hasn't played both halves of back-to-back sets this year, and he's one of several Warriors who will be unavailable following Thursday's overtime loss to the Celtics. Donte DiVincenzo and Moses Moody are candidates to see increased run for the shorthanded club Friday, while Thompson will likely return to action Sunday against Brooklyn.

Goes quiet after big first half Thompson finished with 24 points (8-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, two steals, one assist and one block across 36 minutes before fouling out of Thursday's 121-118 overtime...
Impact After leading all players with 20 first-half points on 6-of-11 shooting from the field, Thompson attempted just five more shots between the second half and overtime. The shooting guard didn't contribute much else across the stat sheet, though he did come through with his first multi-steal performance since Dec. 16. Thursday marks the front end of the back-to-back set for the Warriors, so Thompson seems likely to sit out Friday in Cleveland as part of his continued injury management plan.

Scores 26, slated to sit Monday Thompson netted a team-high 26 points (9-21 FG, 8-15 3Pt) and added four assists and four rebounds across 33 minutes in Sunday's 132-118 loss to the Bulls.
Impact The eight triples were two off a season-high mark for Thompson, who continues to show improved efficiency after he sat at a 39.3 percent mark from the field for the season following an 8-for-25 showing in a Christmas Day win over the Grizzlies. In his eight appearances since that time, Thompson has hit 49.1 percent of his field goals and 45.6 percent of his three-point tries on his way to averaging 30.7 points per contest. Though the 32-year-old is starting to work his way back to All-Star form after missing the entire 2019-20 and 2020-21 seasons, head coach Steve Kerr said Thompson will sit out Monday against the Wizards in the second half of a back-to-back set for maintenance purposes related to his recent bout of left knee soreness, according to Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area. Kerr noted, however, that he still expects Thompson to play both legs of a back-to-back set before the season ends.

Scores team-high 29 points Thompson recorded 29 points (10-24 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and one steal in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 125-113 loss to Phoenix.
Impact Thompson scored 14 points in the first quarter and seemed as if he was primed to have a huge night on offense, and while the veteran still led Golden State in scoring, he only scored 15 points in the rest of the game while shooting poorly from three-point range. Thompson has delivered up-and-down performances all season long, but he seems to be turning things around with five straight games of at least 29 points.
