Klay Thompson delivered a season-high performance to lead the Dallas Mavericks to a thrilling 143-133 win over the Golden State Warriors. This was Thompson’s second matchup against his former team this season, making the victory even more meaningful.
The Warriors had taken the first game, but this time, Thompson got revenge on his old home court. The game was a notable chapter in Thompson’s journey as he squared off against his former “Splash Brother,” Stephen Curry, and the team he spent all of his storied career with.
Following the game, Thompson shared a touching moment during his Bay Area return. When asked how he spent his day off before the game, the sharpshooter reflected on revisiting the place that holds so many memories for him.
“Went and drove by my old neighborhood. Went to my friend’s house in Oakland. Drove by Oracle. Drove by downtown Oakland. To see The City and The Town, it’s always special, and so many good memories here,” Thompson said in the press conference.

“It was way easier this time. Especially not seeing the captain’s hats. I just took a moment for myself on the court. I spent so many days here, even when I couldn’t play. I’ve worked hard to get back to feeling like this, and I owed myself that second to soak it in,” Thompson said.
Thompson delivered a standout performance on Sunday, scoring a season-high 29 points in the Dallas Mavericks’ 143-133 victory over the Golden State Warriors. Thompson also contributed five rebounds and four assists, shooting an efficient 9-of-14 from the field and 7-of-11 from three-point range.
