Five observations: Klay Thompson goes for 33 points, dragging the Warriors to a win over the Lakers Thompson is looking stronger and more comfortable as his minutes go up, but it was a fourth consecutive subpar game from the Warriors.

Explosive in fourth quarter Thompson ended Saturday's 117-115 win over the Lakers with 33 points (12-22 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-5 FT) and five rebounds over 30 minutes.

Impact Thompson played well through three periods, posting 17 points on 6-for-12 shooting. The sharpshooter then turned things up a notch in the fourth, pouring in 16 points -- nine of which came from beyond the arc -- to help the Warriors fend off Los Angeles. Thompson's biggest shot was a 27-foot triple with 1:35 remaining that erased the Lakers' final lead of the contest. This was the Thompson's first game of at least 30 points this season and could be an indication that he is back to the form that saw him average 20-plus points in five straight campaigns between 2014-15 and 2018-19.

Struggles from field in loss Thompson contributed 17 points (7-17 FG, 3-9 3Pt), seven rebounds, five assists and one block over 30 minutes during Thursday's 116-114 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Thompson made just 33 percent of his three-point attempts and needed 17 shots just to score 17 points, though the entire Warriors team struggled in this one. The rust in his shooting figures is expected given the lengthy spell on the sidelines, but Thompson has still managed to score at least 15 points in six of his last seven appearances.

Will rest Wednesday, play Thursday Thompson won't play Wednesday against the Jazz due to rest, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Impact Slater relays that Thompson will rest the first half of the Warriors' back-to-back, but he's expected to return to the starting lineup Thursday against New York. In his absence, Jordan Poole is expected to enter the starting lineup and garner a role similar to the one he had at the beginning of the season.

Paces Warriors in scoring Monday Thompson finished with 21 points (6-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 29 minutes during Monday's 110-98 win over the Thunder.

Impact Thompson finished as Golden State's leading scorer in the victory, and he has surpassed the 20-point mark in two straight contests for the first time this season. The veteran guard logged a season-high 29 minutes -- a strong sign that his surgically repaired left knee is holding up well after a multi-year absence. Thompson hasn't shot the ball particularly well, but that's not surprising given the substantial time off. Fantasy managers who roster him should expect his field-goal percentage to rise as the season progresses.

Cleared to play 30 minutes Thompson's minutes restriction has been raised to 30 minutes, Kendra Andrews of ESPN reports.

Impact With 11 games under his belt since making his debut Jan. 9, Thompson has been cleared for a slight increase in minutes ahead of the All-Star break. To date, he's yet to surpass 27 minutes, but the sharpshooter has shown few signs of wear and tear despite missing two-and-a-half years of action. Thompson is coming off of his best outing of the season Thursday against Sacramento, when he erupted for seven three-pointers (7-9 3Pt) en route to 23 points, seven assists and five boards in just 24 minutes of action.

Leads team with hot shooting Thompson supplied 23 points (8-11 FG, 7-9 3Pt), seven assists and five rebounds across 24 minutes during Thursday's 126-114 win over the Kings.

Impact Thompson's elite shooting was on full display in the victory, as he knocked down a season-best seven three-pointers on only nine attempts. The veteran guard didn't waste any time heating up, draining his first seven shot attempts en route to 20 first-half points. Thompson entered the contest shooting just 40.6 percent from the field and 32.9 percent from beyond the arc, but Thursday's performance was a reminder that it's only a matter of time before he shakes off the rust of a multi-year layoff and reestablishes himself as one of the league's most talented shooters.
