Kerr said he was just as pleased with Thompson’s seven rebounds against the Rockets as he was with his 42 points because it showed he’s willing do more than just score.
SAN FRANCISCO — There’s a tired question popping up after every big performance by Klay Thompson this season.After dazzling Friday on a night when the Warriors needed him most, Thompson said he’s done viewing himself from pre- and post-injury lenses.
It might’ve been the latter half of just his second back-to-back in nearly four years, but Thompson showed no signs of exhaustion as he led the Warriors’ charge against the Rockets, who own the worst record in the league. Thompson had a pair of conversations with coaches over the last week about how the greatest players evolve their games as they get older.
