Golden State Warriors won early this morning against Dallas Mavericks 120-117 in what was Klay Thompson's return to the Chase Center in a memorable game for Stephen Curry.
A beastly and emotional night for him in a year where the Bay's team has started off strong. He finished the match with 37 points and 9 assists, playing a crucial role. He had the final say, scoring 12 points in the last 3:10, including a step-back three-pointer over Dereck Lively II with 28.5 seconds left that he celebrated with his "Night, night" gesture.
"It was a memorable night," said Curry after the game, remembering his colleague Klay Thompson's departure. "I know that from July, when Klay decided to go to Dallas, until we showed up at the training camp and he wasn't here, it was a slow build to this night for all of us. ... And, of course, we won, so I can say this, but I couldn't have imagined it any other way: he played well, the fans enjoyed an incredible show, and everything was decided in the end. It couldn't be summarized better, and they are certainly special memories to reflect on the 13 years he was here, the four championships, and all that we achieved, and then we turn the page to where we are now."
Good game from Klay
Klay didn't have a bad game at all and finished with 22 points and a 50% three-point shooting percentage. However, neither the 31 points from Luka Doncic nor the 21 from Kyrie Irving helped. Another tough loss for the Mavs against a Warriors team sitting at the top of the West with 9 wins and 2 losses (5-6 for the NBA Finalists in contrast).
