Swats three shots Wednesday Thompson finished with 22 points (8-25 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three blocks, three assists, two rebounds and one steal in 36 minutes in Wednesday's 124-123 loss to the Jazz.

Impact Thanks in large part to the absences of Stephen Curry (ankle) and Andrew Wiggins (groin), Thompson enjoyed more touches than usual on the offensive end, as his 25 field-goal attempts represented a new season high. Thompson's poor efficiency dimmed some of the luster of a strong all-around stat line, with the season-high three blocks representing a highlight. Fantasy managers shouldn't count on consistent production from Thompson in that category, however; he entered Wednesday's contest with just three blocks over his prior 11 appearances combined.

Leads team with 28 points Thompson accumulated 28 points (9-23 FG, 8-16 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one block across 37 minutes during Monday's 112-104 loss to Indiana.

Impact Thompson had a dynamic night beyond the arc, drilling eight threes in 16 attempts. Stephen Curry was struggling with his shot early, and Thompson was able to step up and generate the missing production in the backcourt. Despite some excellent results over the past couple of weeks, coach Steve Kerr appears resolute in his decision to hold Thompson out of back-to-back contests. Fantasy managers should remain alert when the scenario presents itself.

Absent from injury report Thompson (Achilles) isn't listed on the injury report for Monday's game versus the Pacers.

Impact The 32-year-old sat out the second half of a back-to-back set Saturday against Houston, so it's no surprise he'll be back on the court for Monday's contest. Thompson has averaged 18.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 32.0 minutes across his past five contests.

Excels with 26/6/5 line Thompson provided 26 points (9-21 FG, 3-13 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds and six assists across 37 minutes during Friday's 119-111 win over Chicago.

Impact Thompson had trouble getting his shots from deep to fall Friday, but he still finished second on the team (behind Jordan Poole) with 26 points. Thompson's fantasy managers are no doubt happy to see that he contributed more than usual in other areas, exceeding his season averages with five boards and six dimes. Thompson's performance was a nice bounce-back after he scored just five points on 2-for-9 shooting in his previous game.

Efficient scoring Sunday Thompson supplied 21 points (8-13 FG, 5-8 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 30 minutes during Sunday's 137-114 victory over the Timberwolves.

Impact Thompson went 5-for-6 from the field and scored 14 of his 21 points after halftime in Sunday's blowout victory. It was the third time in his last four appearances that he made at least five three-pointers in a game. After making just 35.1 percent of his shots and averaging only 15.1 points through his first 12 games, the 32-year-old has been much better of late, scoring 24.0 points per contest and making 53.8 percent of his attempts over the last five games.

The Warriors guard got it going in the second half, hitting four of six shots in the third quarter for 12 points, including four of six three-point attempts as Golden State maintained its lead down the stretch. Thompson went 6-of-9 from three over the final two quarters, giving him his third game this season with six or more makes from behind the arc.
