Klay Thompson Injury News & Updates

Thompson (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Rockets, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Thompson is dealing with left knee soreness and will miss the second leg of Dallas' back-to-back set. His next opportunity to play will come Friday against the Nets. With the veteran sharpshooter unavailable, Naji Marshall, Caleb Martin and Max Christie are candidates for an uptick in minutes, especially if P.J. Washington (ankle) remains on the shelf.

Thompson (knee) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Rockets.

Thompson is a late addition to the injury report due to left knee soreness and is unlikely to suit up in the second leg of Dallas' back-to-back set. If the veteran sharpshooter is ultimately ruled out, Caleb Martin, Naji Marshall and Max Christie are candidates for an uptick in playing time.

Thompson (illness) is available for Monday's game against the Nuggets.

Thompson has been carrying a probable tag leading up to tipoff, and he's now been given the green light to suit up. He could draw a spot start Monday due to P.J. Washington's (ankle) absence, but even if he isn't named in the starting five, he should be more involved with the Mavs shorthanded.

Thompson (illness) is probable for Monday's game against the Nuggets.

Thompson is dealing with an illness, but the issue isn't expected to prevent him from playing. The veteran sharpshooter has averaged 10.9 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 21.8 minutes per tilt in 20 games this season.

Thompson racked up 23 points (8-13 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist across 26 minutes during Saturday's 114-110 victory over the Clippers.

Thompson delivered an efficient performance en route to a season-best 23 points. The sharpshooter has struggled to start the campaign, though it appears he's turning a corner. He has scored in double figures in four consecutive contests, averaging 17.0 points while shooting 48.6 percent from downtown in 23.5 minutes per game during that span.

Thompson (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Clippers, Christian reports.

Thompson was originally ruled out for Saturday's game due to left knee injury management, but the veteran shooting guard is indeed available to play. He has averaged 12.7 points, 1.8 rebounds, 1.1 assist and 3.4 threes in 23.0 minutes per game over his last 10 outings.

Thompson (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Clippers.

Thompson will miss just his second game of the regular season due to left knee injury management, so he should be available to return Monday against the Nuggets. His absence means Max Christie and D'Angelo Russell should see more minutes off the bench during Saturday's contest.

Thompson accumulated 22 points (7-17 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and one rebound in 28 minutes during Saturday's 102-96 loss to the Grizzlies.

Thompson led the team in scoring, totaling a season-high 22 points. Despite moving to the bench, Thompson has looked slightly better in recent times, averaging 13.0 points and 3.5 three-pointers in 23.6 minutes over his past eight games. With that said, he should be viewed as nothing more than a three-point streaming option.

Thompson isn't part of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Pelicans.

Thompson drew the start Wednesday due to the absence of Cooper Flagg, but with Flagg active Friday, Thompson will return to the second unit. In seven appearances off the bench this season, Thompson is averaging 10.7 points, 2.1 rebounds and 2.0 assists across 22.4 minutes.

Thompson is in the Mavericks' starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.

Thompson started in the Mavericks' first seven games of the regular season before being moved to a bench role in early November. However, the veteran sharpshooter is back in the Mavs' starting five for Wednesday's game due to the absence of 2025 No. 1 overall pick Cooper Flagg (illness). Thompson has averaged 10.1 points, 2.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.8 threes over 21.7 minutes per game since Nov. 1.

Thompson closed Sunday's 138-133 overtime win over Portland with 19 points (7-16 FG, 5-11 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one block over 26 minutes.

Thompson was one of seven Dallas players who scored in double digits in this overtime win, and the veteran continued his solid play of late after struggling with his shot in the early stages of the campaign. Thompson has been turning a corner of late and has scored at least 13 points while hitting at least four treys in his last three games, all of them coming off the bench.

Thompson chipped in a team-high 19 points (6-17 FG, 6-16 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and one assist over 31 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 123-114 loss to the Suns.

The veteran forward played a season high in minutes, as P.J. Washington (shoulder) left the game in the first half and didn't return, and converted them into a season high in points. The Mavericks were already shorthanded in the frontcourt with both Anthony Davis (calf) and Dereck Lively (knee) on the shelf, so Thompson could be headed for a big workload in the short term until the roster gets healthier. While he's a long way from his Splash Brothers peak with Golden State, Thompson is still capable of getting hot from downtown -- Wednesday's six made threes doubled his prior season high.

Thompson (illness) isn't listed on the Mavericks' injury report for Monday's game against the Bucks.

After missing Saturday's win over the Wizards due to illness, Thompson is set to return to action against Milwaukee. Over his last five appearances (three starts), the veteran swingman has averaged 6.4 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists while shooting 29.3 percent from the field in 19.6 minutes per contest.

Thompson (illness) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Wizards.

Thompson will miss a game for the first time this season due to an illness. The team will likely lean on Max Christie, Naji Marshall and Caleb Martin to pick up the slack.

Thompson will come off the bench during Wednesday's game against the Pelicans, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Thompson will be in the second unit for the first time this season, with Max Christie getting the nod in the starting lineup. Thompson is currently averaging 8.1 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game, shooting 31.8 percent from the field and 26.2 percent from beyond the arc.

Thompson closed Monday's 110-102 loss to the Rockets with five points (2-9 FG, 1-8 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and one block over 18 minutes.

Thompson was a non-factor yet again, scoring single-digits for the fourth time in the past six games. The term 'washed' is thrown around a lot in the NBA, but in this instance, we may have reached that point in Thompson's career. Despite starting every game thus far, he is averaging just 8.1 points and 1.6 three-pointers in 20.2 minutes per contest.

Thompson recorded eight points (3-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one block in 22 minutes during Monday's 101-94 loss to Oklahoma City.

Thompson continues to offer very little, averaging just 9.0 points and 1.5 three-pointers per game across the first four games of the season. Despite his starting role, Thompson is typically playing minutes in the low-20s, making him a non-factor in standard fantasy leagues.

Thompson ended with 10 points (4-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and one assist across 22 minutes during Wednesday's 125-92 loss to the Spurs.

The veteran sharpshooter showed signs of rust in his season debut, and his playing time was likely negatively affected by Wednesday's rout. Thompson's fantasy value looks to be on the decline for his age-35 campaign, but he'll still likely have a green light to fire away on offense until the Mavericks get Kyrie Irving (knee) back into the fray.

Thompson notched 14 points (5-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt) and a rebound across 21 minutes in Saturday's 120-116 preseason loss to the Hornets.

Thompson was sharp from beyond the arc and drained four triples in this preseason showing. The Mavericks don't need Thompson to be much of a playmaker with D'Angelo Russell, Anthony Davis and Cooper Flagg on the court, but he remains a vital piece of the offense due to his outside shooting.

Thompson is out for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies due to a left foot sprain.

Thompson won't play in the regular-season finale due to the injury, and it seems the Mavericks aren't willing to take any risks with the veteran sharpshooter. Dallas has already locked up a spot in the Play-In Tournament, so Thompson is expected to return for that round.

Thompson (foot) is available for Friday's game against the Raptors.

Thompson is working through a left foot sprain, but the injury is not severe enough for him to be sidelined for Friday's contest. The veteran sharpshooter has connected on 35.6 percent of his three-points attempts over his last 10 outings and has averaged 11.8 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists over 25.6 minutes per game over that span.

Thompson is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Raptors due to a left foot sprain.

Thompson is in danger of missing his first game since March 19 due to a sprained left foot. If Thompson is ultimately downgraded to out, Max Christie will likely receive increased playing time against Toronto.

Thompson contributed six points (2-8 FG, 2-7 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 112-97 loss to the Lakers.

The Mavericks went without a true starting point guard Wednesday, but it didn't translate to an uptick in playmaking responsibilities for Thompson. The veteran sharpshooter is limping to the finish line in 2024-25, having averaged 10.9 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 2.6 three-pointers in 24.9 minutes over his last nine contests. Thompson has just one 20-point effort during this stretch.

Thompson (illness) isn't on the injury report for Saturday's game versus the Clippers.

Thompson will suit up Saturday despite leaving Friday's contest early due to an illness. Thompson has been struggling with his efficiency as of late, shooting just 38.1 percent from the field across his previous 10 appearances.

Thompson won't return to Friday's game against the Clippers due to an illness.

The Mavericks didn't disclose further details of the illness affecting Thompson, but they're going to be cautious with the veteran sharpshooter, as the last thing Dallas needs right now is another starter going down with an injury. Max Christie started the second half over Thompson, and he could be in line for an uptick in minutes in case Thompson is unable to play Saturday in the second leg of the back-to-back set.

Thompson supplied 17 points (6-11 FG, 5-9 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 120-118 victory over the Hawks.

Thompson tallied double-digit scoring for the fourth straight game, hitting five triples including a late-game dagger that preceded a game-winning shot by Anthony Davis. Although Thompson is not the player he once was, he still has the ability to come through in the clutch. Through 68 games player, he is averaging 14.4 points and 3.1 three-pointers in 27.7 minutes per contest.

Thompson recorded 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt) and four rebounds across 26 minutes during Thursday's 101-92 victory over Orlando.

Thompson failed to reach the 15-point mark for the third straight game, and for the fifth time in his previous seven, so there's no doubt the veteran sharpshooter has been struggling of late. Even though he posted a solid shooting line in this win, shooting 50 percent from the floor and from beyond the arc, the Mavericks need him to score at a higher rate, particularly with how depleted they are in terms of depth. Thompson is averaging 15.1 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game over his last 10 appearances.

Thompson provided six points (2-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 128-113 loss to the Knicks.

Thompson is trending in the wrong direction for Dallas, and he couldn't take advantage of the extra usage with Anthony Davis taking the night off. Over his last five games, Thompson is shooting 33.8 percent from the field for 12.0 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.6 three-pointers in 27.5 minutes.

Thompson (illness) is off the injury report for Friday's game against the Pistons.

Thompson was a late scratch for Wednesday's loss to the Pacers due to the illness, though he is slated to return to action Friday. Over his last five outings, the veteran sharpshooter has averaged 18.0 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.6 three-pointers across 31.4 minutes per contest.

Thompson has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Indiana due to an illness, Christian Clark of The Athletic reports.

Wednesday will be the first game Thompson has missed since Feb. 13, and he'll look to recover from his illness in time for Friday's game against the Pistons. Thompson's absence for Wednesday's game opens the door for Jaden Hardy or Max Christie to join the Mavericks' starting five.

Thompson produced 26 points (8-14 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 7-7 FT), three assists and two rebounds in 36 minutes during Monday's 133-129 victory over the Spurs.

The sharpshooter finished as the club's second-leading scorer behind Spencer Dinwiddie (28 points), snapping the Mavericks' five-game losing streak. Thompson was also efficient from the field in the win, logging his 13th outing with 20-plus points. The veteran forward also sank three-plus triples for the 37th time across 58 regular-season appearances.

Thompson amassed 26 points (8-20 FG, 5-14 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal across 32 minutes during Sunday's 125-116 loss to Phoenix.

Thompson provided a lift to Dallas offensively Sunday, connecting on a team-high mark from deep while finishing second on the team in scoring and as one of two Mavericks with 25 or more points. Thompson has buried five or more threes in 15 contests, doing so in two of his last three outings. He has now tallied 25 or more points on five occasions this season.

Thompson registered 28 points (11-27 FG, 6-14 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 137-107 loss to the Bucks.

Thompson led the way for the Mavericks as the first man to account for Kyrie Irving's (knee) lost output. Thompson's streaky shot could be the antidote for the Irving shutdown, but Spencer Dinwiddie and Naji Marshall will also remain involved while Dallas work through absences all over the roster.

Thompson produced 16 points (5-14 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Saturday's 132-117 loss to the Bucks.

The 35-year-old is having perhaps his best stretch of the season, particularly from long distance. Thompson has drained at least three three-pointers in seven straight appearances, averaging 16.4 points, 4.3 threes, 3.7 boards, 2.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.7 blocks during that span while shooting an impressive 46.9 percent from beyond the arc.

Thompson provided 22 points (8-17 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one steal across 30 minutes during Tuesday's 107-99 loss to the Lakers.

Thompson drilled five three-pointers and turned in one of his best lines of the season. Although his long-range shot can be streaky, the veteran has been very accurate beyond the arc, averaging 53.8 percent from deep over the past five games. Thompson's continued accuracy at the perimeter will greatly improve Dallas' chances as they make their way through their schedule.

Thompson (foot) contributed 12 points (4-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and two steals across 25 minutes in Friday's 111-103 win over the Pelicans.

Thompson was one of three Dallas starters to return to the lineup for the Mavericks' first game following the All-Star break, as he and Kyrie Irving (shoulder) returned from one-game absences, while P.J. Washington (ankle) was back in action after sitting out the previous three contests. Though Thompson made his usual contribution in three-pointers and also chipped in a pair of steals, poor efficiency and a lack of a peripheral contributions continue to suppress his fantasy upside. Thompson is still capable of popping off for huge scoring performances every now and then, but the big games aren't coming frequently enough at this stage of his career to make him much more than a streaming option for three-pointers in 12-team category or points leagues.

Thompson (foot) is not on the injury report for Friday's game against the Pelicans.

Thompson didn't play in the Mavericks' final game before the All-Star break, but the veteran forward shouldn't have problems suiting up and handling his regular workload in this contest. He's averaging 14.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game since the beginning of February while shooting 35.4 percent from three.

Thompson (foot) will not play Thursday against Miami, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Thompson will join Kyrie Irving (shoulder) as notable players to be ruled out for Thursday's game, according to head coach Jason Kidd. The shorthanded Mavs will likely start Max Christie in Thompson's place.

Thompson is listed as questionable for Thursday's game versus the Heat due to a left foot sprain.

With Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and Dante Exum (Achilles) also deemed questionable Thursday, Dallas could be left short-handed in their backcourt. If these players are ultimately ruled out, Spencer Dinwiddie, Jaden Hardy and Cam Christie will likely receive increased playing time.

Thompson finished with 17 points (6-19 FG, 5-14 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 111-107 victory over Golden State.

While it wasn't exactly a huge revenge game, Thompson's 14 three-point attempts were a season high as he showed flashes of his old Splash Brother form. The 35-year-old has drained at least three treys in seven of the last nine contests, averaging 16.0 points, 4.1 boards, 3.7 threes and 2.3 assists during that span while shooting 42.3 percent from beyond the arc.

Thompson finished Thursday's 127-120 win over the Celtics with 25 points (11-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt), four assists and three rebounds over 29 minutes.

Thompson helped the Mavericks get out to a large lead Thursday, scoring 23 of his 25 points in the first half in a performance reminiscent of his 2021-22 NBA Finals performance against Boston. Thompson has scored at least 20 points in three of his last six outings, and over that span he has shot 44.0 percent from three on 8.3 3PA/G. He'll look to carry that momentum into Saturday's clash against the Rockets.

Thompson had two points (1-10 FG, 0-6 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists over 18 minutes during Sunday's 144-101 loss to the Cavaliers.

Thompson had a nightmare showing as the Mavericks were blown out in a hurry. Big changes are coming to Dallas with the Mavericks swapping Luka Doncic for Anthony Davis, both of whom are recovering from their respective injuries. Thompson's usage rate is unlikely to be affected too much, however.

Thompson racked up 23 points (8-15 FG, 7-12 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists and one block over 24 minutes during Monday's 130-108 victory over the Wizards.

Thompson was coming off a six-point dud (2-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt) in the loss to the Celtics on Saturday, but he bounced back admirably here and posted one of his best showings of the entire season. The veteran reached the 20-point mark just for the seventh time in 2024-25, and the seven threes made tied a season-high output for him in that category. While it'd be unrealistic to believe he'll shoot at this rate on a sustained basis going forward, Thompson still has value as a potential streaming option in most formats solely based on his three-point shooting ability.

Thompson recorded six points (2-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three rebounds and one block in 26 minutes during Saturday's 122-107 loss to the Celtics.

Thompson returned from a two-game absence but failed to have any sort of tangible impact. Now in the twilight of his career, it's been tough sledding for the veteran, averaging just 13.4 points and 2.9 three-pointers in 27.5 minutes per game. Even without Luka Doncic (calf) on the floor, Thompson has been unable to take up any of the slack. At this point, it appears as though his days of being a consistent perimeter scorer are behind him.

Thompson (ankle) is available for Saturday's game versus the Celtics but will be limited to around 24-25 minutes, Grant reports.

Thompson has been upgraded from questionable to available Saturday after missing Dallas' previous two contests due to a sprained left ankle. However, the 34-year-old forward will play slightly less than his season average of 27.6 minutes per contest.

Thompson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against Boston.

Thompson is in jeopardy of missing his third consecutive contest due to a left ankle sprain. If the veteran sharpshooter joins Naji Marshall (illness) on the shelf, Olivier-Maxence Prosper and Kessler Edwards are candidates for increased roles.

Thomspon (ankle) won't play in Thursday's game versus the Thunder.

Thompson will miss his second straight contest Thursday due to a sprained left ankle. Quentin Grimes will likely draw another start in his absence. Thompson's next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Boston.

Thompson (ankle) will not play Wednesday against the Timberwolves.

Thompson was previously listed as questionable, but the Mavericks will hold him out for the first leg of this back-to-back set. Naji Marshall (illness) is also out, leaving the Mavericks very thin on the wings. Quentim Grimes is likely to see a hefty workload after shaking off his back issue.

Thompson (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves.

Thompson has only missed five games with the Mavericks this season but could be trending toward missing Wednesday's matchup against Minnesota. If the four-time NBA champion can't play against the Timberwolves, P.J. Washington, Spencer Dinwiddie, and Olivier-Maxence Prosper could see more time on the floor for Dallas.

Thompson finished with 25 points (9-19 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 35 minutes during Sunday's 112-101 loss to the Nuggets.

Aside from leading the Mavericks in scoring Sunday, Thompson also managed to bounce back from an ugly showing against the Trail Blazers, where he scored a meager three points on 1-for-6 shooting. This was Thompson's sixth game of the season with at least 20 points, but those have been odd throughout the season, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to carry the Mavs offensively even with Luka Doncic (calf) and Kyrie Irving (back) still sidelined.

Thompson supplied three points (1-6 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal across 22 minutes during Thursday's 117-111 win over the Trail Blazers.

Thompson had one of his worst performances with the Mavericks during Thursday's win against the Trail Blazers. The four-time NBA champion has been streaky this season in Dallas, and that continued against Portland, shooting 1-for-6 from the floor in 22 minutes. The veteran sharpshooter hasn't been able to capitalize on shouldering the load in the absence of fellow stars Luka Doncic (calf) and Kyrie Irving (back).

Thompson racked up 16 points (6-11 FG, 4-8 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one steal across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 110-99 loss to the Rockets.

Thompson was efficient in his return to game action after missing Monday's loss to the Kings due to an illness. The sharpshooter struggled with consistency in the early part of the season, though he has found his groove of late, reaching the double-digit scoring mark in each of his last 11 appearances. Over that 11-game span, Thompson has averaged 16.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.5 steals across 27.5 minutes per contest.

Thompson (illness) isn't listed on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Rockets.

Thompson was a late scratch Monday due to an illness but should return to action Wednesday. The veteran sharpshooter scored in double figures in 10 of 11 December appearances, averaging 15.4 points while shooting 47 percent from the field during that stretch.

Thompson has been ruled out for Monday night's game against the Kings due to an illness, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Thompson was set to serve as the Mavericks' focal point on offense Monday due to the absences of Luka Doncic (calf) and Kyrie Irving (shoulder). However, Thompson appears to be the under the weather, and it is severe enough for him to miss his fifth game of the regular season. His next opportunity to play will be Wednesday against the Rockets. P.J. Washington, Quentin Grimes, Jaden Hardy, Spencer Dinwiddie and Olivier-Maxence Prosper are all set to see increased work Monday due to Thompson, Doncic and Irving all being sidelined.

Thompson registered 22 points (9-17 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, three assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Thursday's 118-95 loss to the Clippers.

On the surface, Thompson delivered a solid performance since he reached the 20-point mark for the second game in a row -- and third time over his last four appearances. However, the veteran sharpshooter had a rough outing from three-point range, reverting to some of the poor numbers he had been delivering prior to showing improvement in December. He's making 42.6 percent of his treys since the beginning of December, but that figure drops to 38.3 percent when factoring in the entire 2024-25 campaign.

Thompson totaled 29 points (9-14 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals in 29 minutes during Sunday's 143-133 win over Golden State.

Thompson posted a season-best 29 points against his former team, as his well as his seven three-pointers. The Mavericks have won seven of their past eight games, but Thompson has been outside the top-100 in nine-category formats in that span with averages of 14.6 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 3.3 three-pointers.

Thompson notched 19 points (7-14 FG, 5-10 3Pt) and four rebounds over 28 minutes during Tuesday's 118-104 loss to the Thunder.

Thompson had a productive outing offensively, but his peripheral stats were lacking. That's been the case for most of the regular season, as he's averaging just 3.5 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.3 blocks in 27.6 minutes per contest.

Thompson logged 20 points (8-16 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and one steal over 25 minutes during Saturday's 125-118 win over Toronto.

Thompson found his shooting touch Saturday, with his 20 points eclipsing his total from his prior two outings (15). It was just the third time this season that Thompson managed to crack 20 points, though he's averaging just 12.0 field-goal attempts per game as he operates as the third option behind Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving. On the season, Thompson is averaging 13.0 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.8 assists over 27.6 minutes per game.

Thompson ended Tuesday's 121-116 win over Memphis with four points (1-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal over 20 minutes.

Thompson returned to action after missing four consecutive games as a result of a foot injury. Limited to just 20 minutes, Thompson found the going tough, something that has been a worrying trend this season. Despite playing a consistent starting role, Thompson has scored more than 20 points only twice, averaging just 12.7 points per game to this point. He is converting on 2.8 three-pointers per contest but his lack of peripheral contributions is perhaps more noticeable than ever.

Thompson (foot) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Grizzlies but will be restricted to around 20 minutes of action, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Thompson has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday after missing Dallas' last four contests due to left foot plantar fasciitis. Thompson is averaging 12.2 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 27.6 minutes across his previous 10 appearances. However, the 34-year-old forward will likely play closer to 20 minutes against Memphis.

Thompson (foot) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Grizzlies, Mark Followill of Bally Sports Southwest reports.

Thompson (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Portland.

Thompson will miss a fourth straight game due to left foot plantar fasciitis. Naji Marshall (illness) and Dereck Lively (knee) have already been ruled out, while Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and Luka Doncic (wrist) are questionable, so Dallas may be extremely shorthanded Sunday. Thompson's next chance to suit up will come Tuesday against Memphis.

Thompson (foot) won't play in Saturday's game versus the Jazz.

Thompson will miss his third straight game Saturday due to left foot plantar fasciitis. Naji Marshall will likely draw another start in his absence. Thompson's next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Portland.

Thompson (foot) didn't participate in Friday's practice, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Thompson has missed Dallas' previous two contests due to left foot plantar fasciitis. While the Mavericks have yet to release an official injury report, Thompson's absence from practice is a bad sign of his availability for Saturday's matchup with Utah.

Thompson (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.

Thompson has been downgraded from questionable to out and will miss a second straight game due to left foot plantar fasciitis. Naji Marshall should stick in the starting lineup, while Jaden Hardy and Spencer Dinwiddie are also candidates for increased roles.

Thompson (foot) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Knicks.

Thompson is in danger of missing his second straight contest due to left foot plantar fasciitis. If Thompson is forced to sit out again, Naji Marshall will likely draw another start.

Thompson (foot) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Atlanta, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Thompson will miss his first game of the 2024-25 regular season due to plantar fasciitis in his left foot. It's unclear whether the injury is severe enough to warrant a multi-game absence, and Thompson's next opportunity to play will be Wednesday against the Knicks. Naji Marshall and Jaden Hardy are the top two candidates to be inserted into Monday's starting lineup due to injuries to Thompson and Quentin Grimes (illness).

Thompson (foot) is questionable for Monday's game against the Hawks.

Thompson is battling Plantar Fasciitis in his left foot, which typically requires rest and maintenance. This questionable designation comes from the official injury report, so there's no word on the severity yet. If Thompson can't play Monday, the Mavericks could turn to Spencer Dinwiddie, Naji Marshall, Quentin Grimes and Jaden Hardy to fill the void.

Thompson closed Tuesday's 132-91 victory over the Pelicans with 19 points (6-15 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two steals in 24 minutes.

Thompson found some much-needed rhythm on the offensive end, connecting on five three-pointers en route to 19 points. Although he remains one of the most proven perimeter scorers in the league, Thompson has struggled to find any consistency since arriving in Dallas. Across q5 games, he is averaging 14.0 points and 3.1 three-pointers per game, adding very little in terms of peripheral numbers.

Thompson closed with five points (1-11 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one block and two steals over 25 minutes during Sunday's 121-119 victory over Oklahoma City.

Thompson couldn't get anything going Sunday, but the Mavericks managed to improve to 7-7 on the season. This was Thompson's third dud in a row, and fantasy managers will be hoping he can break out of this mini slump soon. In his last three games, he's shooting 31.4 percent from the field and 29.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Thompson provided 22 points (7-17 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 120-117 loss to the Warriors.

Thompson received a home-town welcome at the Chase Center Tuesday night. Thompson was an 11-year fixture with the Warriors, and he gave his former teammates a little taste of what they're missing with a barrage of three-pointers. He logged one of his best totals as a Maverick in the narrow loss, and it was his highest point total since the opening game against the Spurs.

Thompson had 12 points (4-13 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 34 minutes during Friday's 114-113 loss to the Suns.

Thompson has been relegated to the role of being a third option in the Mavs' offensive scheme behind Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, and he's definitively struggling to adjust to having fewer touches than ever in his career. Thompson's efficiency has been affected as well. He's failed to reach the 15-point mark in three of his four appearances this month, shooting a meager 33.3 percent from deep in that span.

Thompson finished with 12 points (5-13 FG, 2-9 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal across 30 minutes during Thursday's 108-102 loss to the Rockets.

Thompson was the third-leading scorer for the Mavericks on Thursday behind Luka Doncic (29) and Kyrie Irving (28), though Thompson was inefficient from three-point range. As the third option on offense, Thompson is averaging 12.8 field-goal attempts per game (his lowest since the 2011-12 regular season), 9.8 of which are coming from three-point range, which is exactly what he was brought into Dallas for. Through the first five games of the regular season, he's averaging 15.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.2 steals over 29.4 minutes per game.

Thompson closed with 19 points (7-16 FG, 5-12 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 33 minutes during Saturday's 114-102 loss to the Suns.

Most of Thompson's fantasy upside is tied to what he can do as a scorer, and even though two games are not enough to draw conclusions, it seems he's enjoying a solid start to life in Dallas. Thompson has scored more than 15 points in his first two outings this season and is shooting an impressive 11-for-22 from deep. Maintaining those numbers, even if there's a regression in the efficiency department, will keep him as a strong fantasy alternative across all formats.

Thompson posted 22 points (7-13 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and three steals in 26 minutes during Thursday's 120-109 victory over San Antonio.

Thompson drained six of his 10 three-pointers in his debut with the Mavericks, and he established a franchise record in a debut with that mark. Even though the Mavericks offense will run through Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, there's no question that having a third option of Thompson's caliber increases the team's upside on the offensive end of the court considerably. Even if he doesn't hover around the 20-point mark regularly, Thompson should provide decent fantasy upside in category-based leagues due to his three-point shooting and scoring potential, and his upside in standard formats will be tied to what he can accomplish in peripheral stats.

Thompson delivered 11 points (4-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt), six rebounds and two assists across 18 minutes in Thursday's 109-84 preseason win over the Bucks.

Thompson has been shooting the ball poorly in the preseason, but as a veteran who has been around the league more than a few times and with a decorated pedigree, there shouldn't be a lot of stock placed in Thompson's preseason numbers. The veteran will be the Mavericks' third option on offense, however, and that should limit his fantasy upside considerably while tying it almost exclusively to what he can bring to the table as a shooter.

Thompson failed to score (0-9 FG, 0-6 3PT) in Monday's 110-96 preseason loss to the Clippers, adding three rebounds, one assist and one block in 21 minutes.

Thompson was ice cold in the loss, highlighting the fact that his overall value is perhaps more reliant than ever on just two categories. The Mavericks brought him in to spread the floor, something he will be able to do, even when his shot isn't falling, due to a career full of highlight moments. For fantasy managers, Thompson should be viewed as a late-round target, someone who could in fact be expendable at times throughout the season.

Thompson scored 10 points (3-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT) while adding three assists across 18 minutes in Thursday's 107-102 preseason loss to the Jazz.

Head coach Jason Kidd announced before the 8 p.m. ET tip-off that Thompson would play under a minutes' restriction, and that's precisely what happened, as the sharpshooter logged less than 20 minutes and didn't step on the court in the second half. Thompson will be the Mavericks' third option on offense once the regular season begins with a matchup against the Spurs on Oct. 24, and that new role in Dallas should limit his fantasy upside considerably.

Thompson will play around 15 to 18 minutes during the first half in Thursday's preseason contest against the Jazz, head coach Jason Kidd told Kevin Gray Jr. of AllDLLS.com.

Thompson didn't play in the preseason opener against the Grizzlies on Monday, but this game Thursday will be the first time he'll feature for the Mavericks. He'll play alongside Kyrie Irving, who has been cleared to play as well, but Luka Doncic (calf) has been ruled out.

Coach Jason Kidd said Monday that he expects Thompson (rest) to play in the Mavericks' final three preseason matchups, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Thompson sat out Monday's preseason opener against the Grizzlies; however, he will likely return to game action for the club's next preseason matchup against the Jazz on Thursday. Kyrie Irving (rest) -- who also sat out Monday -- is expected to join Thompson versus the Jazz, giving the duo a chance to play together before Opening Night.

Thompson (rest) will not play in Monday's preseason game against Memphis.

The Mavericks will be without four starters Monday, but Thompson is not battling an injury. His next chance to debut for Dallas will be Thursday against Utah.

Thompson will join the Mavericks on a three-year, $50 million deal as part of a multi-team sign-and-trade, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.

Thompson narrowed his top two choices down to the Lakers and Mavericks after the Warriors and the sharpshooter mutually decided to go separate ways, so the Mavericks will be thrilled to pull off this blockbuster. While specifics are still trickling in, Josh Green will head to Charlotte as part of this deal. Thompson's contract includes a player option for the third season, and he'll provide Luka Doncic with some much-needed perimeter shooting as the Mavericks look to make that next step as a franchise after losing to Boston in the NBA Finals.

Thompson is expected to leave the Warriors in free agency, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

The writing has been on the wall for some time, and the Warriors are prepared for this scenario according to Charania. There's been no dialogue between the two sides in regards to a contract and it appears both are ready to move on. Despite his age and recent injury history, Thompson is expected to have a strong market with the Mavericks, Lakers and Clippers all reported to be interested in his services.

Thompson produced zero points (0-10 FG, 0-6 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist over 32 minutes during Tuesday's 118-94 Play-In Game loss to the Kings.

Thompson turned in arguably his worst performance of the season as the Warriors' disappointing season came to an end at the hands of the Kings. Despite a few bright spots throughout the year, it appears Thompson's days of being a reliable offensive threat could be behind him. His future remains a little clouded but no matter where he is next season, it is unlikely he will have much fantasy value outside of points and threes.

Thompson posted 25 points (7-13 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one block in 20 minutes during Sunday's 123-116 win over Utah.

Thompson experienced an uptick in his usage rate with Stephen Curry (ankle) sidelined, and he led the Warriors in scoring on the final day of the regular season. It's safe to say Thompson's days as one of the best shooting guards in the league are over, but he remains a reliable scoring weapon, as evidenced by the fact he scored 20 or more points in 31 different games this season. The Warriors will need Thompson to be at his best in the Play-In matchup against the Kings on Tuesday.

Thompson (knee) is available for Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Jazz.

Thompson was deemed questionable due to right knee tendinitis, but he is seemingly feeling good enough to give it a go. With Steph Curry (ankle) sidelined, Curry could see a little more action than usual on the offensive end of the court.

Thompson (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Jazz.

Coach Steve Kerr said on Friday that he would likely rest several players for the season finale, and their injury report reflects that with four starters carrying questionable tags, along with Jonathan Kuminga (pelvis). There's likely to be more clarity following the morning shootaround.

Thompson (knee) is good to go for Friday's game against the Pelicans, ESPN's Kendra Andrews reports.

Thompson was held out Thursday against Portland in what was the first leg of a back-to-back set. There's no word of any restrictions ahead of tipoff.

Thompson (knee) is probable for Friday's game against the Pelicans.

Thompson missed Thursday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a knee injury, but he'll likely return for the second half of the back-to-back set. Over his last six appearances, he's averaged 21.8 points, 3.0 assists and 2.7 rebounds in 30.0 minutes per game.

Thompson (knee) is out for Thursday's game versus the Trail Blazers.

Thompson has been downgraded from questionable to out Thursday due to right knee tendinitis. Brandin Podziemski will likely start in his absence. Thompson's next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with the Pelicans.

Thompson is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Trail Blazers with right knee tendinitis.

Thompson hadn't appeared on any of the Warriors' injury reports ahead of the previous four games and averaged 26.0 points and 5.0 three-pointers in 30.8 minutes per contest while shooting 56.3 percent from the field over that stretch, so the fact that he's being listed with a knee issue ahead of Thursday's contest is somewhat surprising. Most likely, Thompson's knee tendinitis isn't a major concern, and the Warriors are instead contemplating whether it's worthwhile to rest him Thursday in the front end of a back-to-back set. Even if Thompson and Draymond Green (knee) sit out Thursday, the Warriors would still be heavy favorites over the 21-58 Trail Blazers, while Golden State will want to have all hands on deck for Friday's game against the 47-32 Pelicans.

Thompson finished with 27 points (10-16 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists, one block and one steal over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 134-120 win over the Lakers.

Thompson's five three-pointers contributed to the Warriors' total of 26 converted long-range balls, the most ever allowed by the Lakers. While Thompson's fantasy total was point-dependent, he kept the production going amid Stephen Curry's return to action after posting 32 points during the All-Star's absence. Thompson is getting hot at the perfect time, as the Warriors need every win they can get to improve their playoff seeding.

Thompson closed Sunday's 118-110 win over Utah with 32 points (12-23 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal over 28 minutes.

Thompson has a solid history of elite games when Stephen Curry (rest) is out, and he didn't disappoint in the decisive win. A late rally by Utah made the end result look a lot closer, but the Warriors controlled the game from the tip-off. Thompson's 13-point first quarter helped propel the Warriors into an early lead that they never relinquished. Thompson averaged an impressive 1.14 points per minute, doing all of his damage in the first three quarters.

Thompson posted 29 points (11-15 FG, 7-11 3Pt), three rebounds and four assists over 29 minutes during Thursday's 133-110 victory over the Rockets.

Stephen Curry might have bounced back with a 29-point performance to lead the Warriors to victory, but Thompson's numbers can't be overlooked, as he missed just four shots from the field and came close to tying his season-high mark in threes made. Thompson is not the dominant scorer he once was, perhaps evidenced by the fact he's cleared the 25-point mark just 10 times all season long, but he remains a valuable fantasy alternative since he can get hot on any given game while still holding a decent floor due to his scoring prowess.

Thompson had 14 points (5-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 28 minutes during Tuesday's 104-100 victory over Dallas.

Thompson didn't have his best shooting performance Tuesday and needed 14 shots to score 14 points while also struggling badly from the three-point line. However, the veteran sharpshooter continues to have an offensive impact, even in games where his shot isn't falling off. Thompson has scored in double digits in his last nine contests while averaging 18.9 points per game in that span.

Thompson (foot) is available for Thursday's game against Dallas and will start, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

This was the expectation with Thompson carrying a probable tag prior to this update. In March, Thompson produced averages of 17.8 points, 2.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 3.7 three-pointers.

Thompson is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks with right foot tendinitis.

The "probable" tag suggests Thompson should be able to see decent minutes and handle his regular workload Tuesday, but the Warriors will nonetheless exercise caution with the veteran. Thompson is averaging 18.5 points per game while shooting 38.4 percent from deep over his last 10 games.

Thompson (knee) has been cleared for Sunday's game against San Antonio, Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Thompson will return from a one-game absence due to right knee tendinitis, while Jonathan Kuminga (knees) will be unavailable Sunday. Thompson has only played in one game without Kuminga this season, which yielded 15 points on 13 shots in 32 minutes of action against Orlando on Wednesday.

Thompson (knee) is questionable to face the Spurs on Sunday.

Thompson was a late scratch before Friday's game against the Hornets due to right knee tendinitis, and it remains to be seen if he can feature against the Spurs. Chris Paul could stay in the starting lineup if Thompson can't play Sunday.

Thompson won't play Friday against the Hornets, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Thompson was scratched after the Warriors released their starting lineup, but the severity of the knee issue remains unclear. Chris Paul will slide into the starting lineup to replace Thompson, but Brandin Podziemski, Moses Moody and Gary Payton are also candidates for increased roles.

Thompson is in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Heat, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.

Thompson will replace Brandin Podziemski in the starting lineup Tuesday. Thompson is averaging 12.8 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.1 steals in 27.7 minutes across his last 10 starting appearances.

Thompson registered 17 points (6-15 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 28 minutes during Friday's 123-111 loss to Indiana.

Thompson has been thriving in a bench role for the Warriors of late, and he's surpassed the 15-point mark in his last four outings with the second unit. He's averaging 20.1 points per game while shooting 44.1 percent from the field as a bench option, so he's widely expected to continue in that role moving forward.

Thompson finished Wednesday's 137-116 victory over Memphis with 23 points (9-18 FG, 5-11 3Pt), two assists and one steal across 25 minutes off the bench.

The 34-year-old guard has begun spotting back into the starting five, starting four of 10 games in March, but he was back on the bench Wednesday. On the month, Thompson is averaging 17.8 points, 3.8 threes, 2.5 boards, 2.4 assists and 1.0 steals in 25.9 minutes a contest, and his days as a consistent 20 PPG fantasy asset could be over.

Thompson closed with 18 points (6-15 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, eight assists, one block and two steals in 31 minutes during Monday's 119-112 loss to the Knicks.

Thompson's perimeter game was on point during Monday's loss. The sharpshooter has drilled five-three pointers in four of his last six games, resulting in a six-game average of 20.8 points. That figure is over three points higher than his seasonal average of 17.2 points. The veteran is struggling with a 38.5 percent three-point conversion rate this season, matching a career low.

Thompson finished with 26 points (9-15 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 30 minutes during Saturday's 128-121 win over the Lakers.

Thompson has been alternating between the starting lineup and the second unit in recent days, but he should stay as a bench alternative if Stephen Curry stays healthy, as Steve Kerr wants Thompson to provide a scoring punch off the bench. That was exactly the case Saturday, as he posted 25 or more points for the third consecutive game he came off the bench. He's averaging 20.3 points per contest when deployed with the second unit this season.

Thompson will come off the bench for Saturday's game versus the Lakers, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.

The Warriors are rolling with Stephen Curry, Brandin Podziemski, Andrew Wiggins, Jonathan Kuminga and Draymond Green for Saturday night, and this will likely be the lineup that is utilized the most going forward.

Thompson totaled eight points (3-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt), four rebounds, one block and one steal over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 109-99 loss to Dallas.

Thompson struggled badly from the field and missed 10 of his 13 shots, including five of his three-point attempts. Even though Thompson delivered some impressive performances off the bench, and knowing he shouldn't post these numbers on a regular basis going forward, it's clear he's struggling when tasked with a bigger role on offense. He'll hope to bounce back against the Lakers on Saturday.

Thompson registered 21 points (8-21 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal in 30 minutes during Monday's 112-102 win over the Spurs.

Thompson forced his way back into the starting lineup after scoring 25 and 27 points in his previous two outings off the bench, and he reached the 20-point mark in this one as well. The veteran sharpshooter has been turning things around lately, averaging 18.0 points per game and shooting 42.9 percent from three-point range across his last 10 appearances.

Thompson is starting Monday's game against the Spurs, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson has played well off the bench of late, putting up back-to-back 20-plus point performances. The Warriors are evidently ready to give him another look with the starters, a move that results in Brandin Podziemski being bumped to a reserve role for Monday's clash.

Thompson registered 25 points (9-21 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound, two assists and two steals in 28 minutes during Thursday's 125-122 loss to Chicago.

Thompson has played eight games with the second unit so far, and while that might be too soon to draw conclusions, the move seems to have paid off. The veteran sharpshooter has scored at least 20 points in four of those eight contests and is averaging 18.8 points while shooting 43.4 percent from three-point range in that span.

Thompson will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Bucks, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson will slide back to the bench after a two-game stint in the starting lineup. He'll be replaced by Brandin Podziemski, who missed the last two games with a knee injury but is now healthy. In six games with the reserves, Thompson is averaging 19.2 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists.

Thompson totaled 14 points (5-13 FG, 4-9 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist and two steals in 30 minutes during Friday's 120-105 win over the Raptors.

Thompson returned to the starting lineup, slotting in for the injured Brandin Podziemski (knee). Despite recently moving to the bench, Thompson has been able to string together several encouraging performances, Friday notwithstanding. He has connected on at least four three-pointers in four straight games, putting himself back in the standard league discussion.

Thompson will start Friday's game against the Raptors, Ryan Wolstat of the Toronto Sun reports.

With Andrew Wiggins (personal) away from the team, Moses Moody has started the past two contests. However, Brandin Podziemski (knee) will also be unavailable Friday, so Thompson will get a crack in the starting lineup for the first time since Feb. 14. The veteran sharpshooter has flourished off the bench of late, averaging 19.2 points in 27.0 minutes per game, so it'll be interesting to see how he transitions back to his old role, which he struggled with most of the campaign.

Thompson finished Sunday's 119-103 loss to Denver with a team-high 23 points (7-15 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and one assist across 31 minutes off the bench.

Making his fourth straight appearance as part of the Warriors' second unit, Thompson out-produced rookie guard Brandin Podziemski (four points in 30 minutes) by a significant margin. Considering that no other Golden State bench player scored more than six points, coach Steve Kerr could be reluctant to move Thompson back into the starting five, as least until someone else steps up to provide some reliable offense off the bench.

Thompson finished with three points (1-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt), four rebounds, five assists and one steal over 28 minutes during Thursday's 128-110 win over the Lakers.

Thompson only found the bottom of the basket once in the victory, a far cry from the hot hand he demonstrated prior to the All-Star break. He averaged 24.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in the last three games before the break qnd converted 50.9 percent of his shots. He'll try to right the ship in a back-to-back against the Hornets.

Thompson tallied 35 points (13-22 FG, 7-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two assists across 28 minutes Thursday in the Warriors' 140-137 win over the Jazz.

While playing off the bench for the first time since his 2011-12 rookie season, Thompson thrived in the new role, setting a new season high in scoring while firing off more than 20 shot attempts for the first time since Jan. 27. After the game, head coach Steve Kerr told Anthony Slater of The Athletic that Thompson will continue to come off the bench coming out of the All-Star break. While being deployed as the Warriors' sixth man could hurt Thompson's chances of regularly getting 30-plus minutes, the role should afford him more touches, as the 33.3 usage rate he sported Thursday was well above his season-long rate (23 percent). Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Thompson to regularly clear the 30-point plateau, however, as it took 59.1 percent shooting from the field and 53.8 percent shooting from three-point range for him to reach that benchmark Wednesday.

Thompson isn't starting Thursday's game against the Jazz, Shayna Rubin of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Thompson was held to 12 points on 4-for-14 from the field in Wednesday's loss to the Clippers, and the Warriors will shake up the starting five by giving Brandin Podziemski the nod at shooting guard. This is the first time Thompson has come off the bench in a game since the 2011-12 campaign, his rookie season.

Thompson contributed 26 points (11-19 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds and two assists in 30 minutes during Monday's 129-107 win over the Jazz.

Thompson was impressive Monday, as he bounced back from Saturday's five-point effort against the Suns with his most productive scoring performance since early January. Thompson is not the deadly scorer he once was, but he continues to have value as an above-average shooter who can still score at a respectable rate. He's averaging 17.7 points per game while shooting 36.8 percent from three-point range since the beginning of February.

Thompson (illness) will be available for Saturday's game against the Suns.

Thompson was a late scratch for Thursday's game against the Pacers, but he's fully recovered and is no longer on the injury report. With Thompson getting the green light, it's likely that Brandin Podziemski will return to the second unit.

Thompson (illness) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Pacers.

Thompson wasn't on the Warriors' initial injury report for Thursday's matchup, but he's dealing with an illness and was ruled out less than two hours before tipoff. Moses Moody and Brandin Podziemski are candidates to see additional minutes in Thompson's absence.

Thompson (illness) was a full participant at Thursday's practice and he'll be available for Friday's game in Memphis, Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Thompson sat out Tuesday's game due to an illness, but he's since recovered and should be slated for his usual workload Friday night. His return will likely send Brandin Podziemski back to the second unit, and there will be fewer minutes available for Cory Joseph.

Thompson will not play in Tuesday's game against the 76ers due to illness.

Thompson was a very late addition to Golden State's final injury report. With the veteran sharpshooter ruled out, the Warriors will start rookie Brandin Podziemski in his place.

Thompson accumulated 24 points (9-24 FG, 6-17 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and two steals across 47 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 145-144 double-overtime loss to the Lakers.

The 33-year-old still isn't producing quite as consistently as he used to, but Thompson does seem to be getting closer to his old form. Through 11 games in January, he's scored in single digits only once and is averaging 20.0 points, 4.1 threes, 3.1 assists and 2.6 boards while shooting 40.5 percent from beyond the arc.

Thompson posted 24 points (8-18 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one block across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 134-112 victory over the Hawks.

Thompson rode the wave of emotion in the wake of assistant coach Dejan Milojevic's passing and posted n excellent total during the Warriors' return to action after an eight-day pause. Thompson enjoyed a significant milestone that highlights the veteran's longevity, logging his 400th victory as a trio alongside Stephen Curry and Draymond Green.

Thompson and the Warriors won't play against the Mavericks on Friday as the game was postponed due to the passing of Golden State assistant coach Dejan Milojevic.

Golden State will have its second straight game postponed Friday due to the unexpected passing of Milojevic early Wednesday morning. There is no scheduled make-up date against Dallas yet, but the Warriors' next contest is Wednesday's matchup with Atlanta.

Thompson and the Warriors won't play Wednesday against the Jazz since the game was postponed due to a medical emergency within the Golden State coaching staff.

Warriors assistant coach Dejan Milojevic was hospitalized due to a medical emergency Tuesday night, and Wednesday's game has been called off as a result. It's not yet clear when the game will be made up, but the Warriors' next scheduled game is now Friday against Dallas.

Thompson closed with 30 points (9-19 FG, 7-15 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal across 34 minutes during Friday's 140-131 victory over the Bulls.

Thompson matched his season-high with 30 points, leading the Warriors to a much-needed victory. It's been a roller coaster ride for Thompson this season, struggling to find consistency in his offensive game. However, he has scored double-digits in six straight games, hitting at least three triples in all six. A lack of peripheral stats puts a cap on his overall fantasy value, meaning he is much better suited to specific builds. Although his days of being an elite scorer are behind him, he should be able to flirt with top-100 value moving forward.

Thompson had 19 points (6-18 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal in 35 minutes during Friday's 113-109 victory over the Pistons.

Thompson managed 19 points despite a tepid shooting night, converting only 33.3 percent of his shots. With Chris Paul (hand) sidelined for the foreseeable future, the Warriors will need the rest of the frontcourt firing on all cylinders, and successful nights beyond the arc from Thompson will be key to that effort.

Thompson finished Thursday's 130-127 loss to Denver with 24 points (9-18 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 35 minutes.

Thompson entered Thursday in the midst of a rough four-game stretch during which he averaged just 10.0 points on 31.1 percent shooting from the field. The veteran sharpshooter bounced back against the defending champions with his first performance of 20-plus points since Dec. 23, with his four triples also representing his highest total since that date. Thompson's lack of peripheral stats -- he's averaging a modest 3.7 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.5 blocks on the season -- have always dampened his fantasy stock, so managers who roster him typically rely on his three-point prowess and scoring ability to make up for the tepid production in other areas.

Thompson supplied three points (1-11 FG, 1-6 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist over 26 minutes during Saturday's 132-122 loss to Dallas.

After bouncing back as a top fantasy option in mid-December, Thompson's regression over the past week has to cause some concern for fantasy managers. The sharpshooter has always been shot-dependent, and while a bad game here and there is tolerable, his previous three performances leave a lot to be desired. Thompson's next chance to right the ship comes Tuesday against Orlando.

Thompson posted 13 points (4-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five assists and two steals across 25 minutes during Thursday's 114-102 loss to the Heat.

While Thompson ended as one of Golden State's top scorers in this heavy loss to the Heat, the fact that he scored just 13 points goes to show how poor the Warriors were on the offensive end of the court. Thompson has shot 7-for-33 from the field in his last two games after a six-game streak with 20 or more points. While those inconsistencies conspire against his upside, Thompson remains a valuable fantasy contributor, even if he's not the same player he once was before his two gruesome knee injuries.

Thompson had 28 points (11-16 FG, 6-10 3Pt) and three rebounds in 31 minutes during Saturday's 126-106 win over the Trail Blazers.

Thompson led all Warriors in threes made while finishing with a team-best scoring total and ending two points short of the 30-point mark in a winning effort. Thompson has connected on five or more threes in seven games this season, including in three of his last four outings. He has tallied at least 25 points three times, all of which have taken place over his last six games.

Thompson finished with 20 points (8-17 FG, 4-10 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 27 minutes during Friday's 129-118 win over Washington.

Thompson had another strong performance from three while finishing second on the team in shots made from deep while ending as one of three Warriors with 20 or more points in a winning effort. Thompson has connected on four or more threes in 11 games this season, including in five straight contests. He has reached the 20-point mark or higher in seven of his last 10 games and on 10 occasions this season.

Thompson chipped in 24 points (9-21 FG, 6-15 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 40 minutes during Tuesday's 132-126 overtime victory over Boston.

Although Thompson has suffered through some rough patches this season, his recent totals have been excellent. Over the past four games, he's averaged 50.7 percent from the floor and 50 percent from three-point range. He's increased his opportunity for success with at least 10 shot attempts for 15 consecutive games.

Thompson notched 28 points (11-16 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal in 29 minutes during Sunday's 118-114 win over the Trail Blazers.

Stephen Curry was struggling through one of the worst games of his career, forcing Thompson to put on the gas and shoot the ball more frequently. He found the bottom of the basket in five of 10 attempts from long range and made some mid-range shots for a team-leading total. Thompson's performance followed up an excellent 30-point showing against the Clippers, putting more distance from his tepid outing against the Suns, where he managed only seven points.

Thompson scored a season-high 30 points (9-15 FG, 8-12 3Pt, 4-4 FT) while adding five assists, two steals and a rebound in 32 minutes during Thursday's 121-113 loss to the Clippers.

The veteran wing also established a new season high in made threes as he bounced back from a rough seven-point performance Tuesday in which he shot just 2-for-10 from the floor and 1-for-8 from beyond the arc. Thompson's struggles to begin the season have been well-documented, and he's on pace to average fewer than 20 points a game for the first time since 2013-14. Thursday's effort could be a hint he's starting to find his form, however.

Thompson finished with seven points (2-10 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and five rebounds in 27 minutes during Tuesday's 119-116 loss to the Suns.

Thompson is shooting just 27.9 percent on 8.6 three-point attempts per contest over his last five outings. However, the most alarming part of the veteran guard's performance was Brandin Podziemski and Jonathan Kuminga being in the Warriors' closing lineup ahead of him. With Thompson shooting a career-low 34.3 percent from three and averaging just 15.4 points per game, he could continue to cede playing time to Golden State's youth.

Thompson (illness) is clear to play Tuesday against Phoenix.

Thompson has appeared in 18 consecutive games for the Warriors, and he was able to return to practice Monday after missing Sunday's session. With he and Chris Paul (illness) being removed from the injury report, Golden State will be at full strength Tuesday with the exception of Gary Payton (calf).

Thompson (illness) practiced Monday, Ron Kroichick of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Thompson didn't practice Sunday but returned Monday. An illness kept Chris Paul out of Friday's loss to Oklahoma City, but it appears Thompson won't have an injury designation when the Warriors' injury report drops Monday night.

Thompson didn't practice Sunday due to an illness, Ron Kroichick of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Chris Paul (illness) sat out Friday's loss to Oklahoma City and returned to practice Sunday, but Thompson is now sick, potentially leaving Golden State shorthanded again. Thompson's official status for Tuesday's game in Phoenix should surface Monday afternoon.

Thompson logged 22 points (8-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one block over 39 minutes during Friday's 138-136 overtime loss to the Thunder.

Thompson scored at least 20 points for the first time in the past three games, continuing his underwhelming start to the season. He currently sits just inside the top 200 in standard leagues, averaging 15.8 points and 2.8 three-pointers. He is shooting a career-low 40.4 percent from the floor, an indication that his best is behind him. He should still be rostered in all leagues but is going to find it difficult to be anything more than a top 120 player.

Thompson provided 22 points (8-18 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block across 34 minutes during Thursday's 120-114 victory over the Clippers.

Thompson failed to score 20 points in 13 straight appearances to start the season, but he's eclipsed that mark in four of his last five games. During that stretch, the sharpshooter has averaged 20.0 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 31.0 minutes per game.

Thompson finished with 20 points (6-14 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 5-6 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 124-123 loss to the Kings.

Thompson's continued shooting success is encouraging, as results in mid-November had an adverse effect on his fantasy value. His volume beyond the arc has increased since that slump, and with it, productive stat lines have followed. One uncharacteristic stat during Wednesday's game was Thompson's nine-rebound total, which marked his highest result in the category this season

Thompson totaled 20 points (7-16 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 31 minutes during Monday's 121-116 win over the Rockets.

Thompson played reasonably well against the Thunder over the weekend, but a 20-point game continued to elude him. He finally hit that mark on Monday, and although he still struggled a bit, he drilled five three-pointers on the way to his best scoring total of the season. Thompson depends on his three-point stroke to be fantasy-relevant, and he'll rarely impress in secondary categories.

Thomson was ejected from Tuesday's game versus the Timberwolves with 10:17 remaining in the first quarter, Chris Hine of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Thompson was ejected alongside Jaden McDaniels for an altercation between the two that also saw Draymond Green receive a Flagrant 2 foul. Moses Moody, Gary Payton and Brandin Poziemski are all candidates to receive extended minutes in Thompson's absence.

Thompson logged 15 points (5-12 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-6 FT), six rebunds, an assist and a steal across 32 minutes in Wednesday's 108-105 loss to the Nuggets.

Thompson had a chance to be the hero, but his potential game-tying shot was off the mark. Thompson finished with a solid line, but his results have been all over the map. His floor is a bit unstable, making him a less-dependable fantasy option in the early stages of the season.

Thompson (adductor) is active for Sunday's game against Cleveland, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson logged 33 minutes in Friday's win over Oklahoma City, but the Warriors were tentative with his availability for Sunday. The 33-year-old will be able to suit up, however, joining a fully healthy Warriors squad.

Thompson is listed as questionable to play Sunday against the Cavaliers due to right adductor tightness.

Thompson had been dealing with left knee soreness in recent weeks, but this is an entirely new injury, and it remains to be seen if he'll end up playing against the Cavaliers or not, as Golden State tends to be cautious when it comes to their star players and potential injury situations. Thompson has started in each of his five appearances this season and is averaging 16.8 points per game while shooting 42.9 percent from deep.

Thompson (knee) will play in Wednesday's game against the Kings, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

As expected, Thompson will suit up for Wednesday's tilt after being labeled probable with left knee soreness. Through three games, Thompson is averaging 17.3 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.3 assists on 32.7 minutes.

Thompson (knee) is officially probable to play in Wednesday's game against Sacramento, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson was absent from Monday's victory over New Orleans, but he's trending to only have a one game absence. Thompson's knee soreness is a day-to-day issue.

Thompson (knee soreness) will miss Monday's game against New Orleans, Anthony Slater of The Athleticreports.

Thompson joins Jonathan Kuminga as inactive, setting up a busy night for Moses Moody, Chris Paul, Gary Payton and Cory Joseph. Thompson played in Sunday's game and his next chance to take the court will be Wednesday against Sacramento.

Thompson is questionable for Monday's game against the Pelicans due to right knee soreness.

Thompson made five three-pointers in 29 minutes during Sunday's win over the Rockets, but he may be sidelined for the second half of Golden State's first back-to-back set. The veteran sharpshooter has previously stated that he wants to play in as many games as possible this season after battling injuries in recent years, but the Warriors' medical staff will presumably proceed with caution. If Thompson is sidelined, Moses Moody, Chris Paul, Gary Payton and Cory Joseph would be candidates for increased playing time.

Thompson supplied 19 points (7-12 FG, 5-10 3Pt), four rebounds and one block across 29 minutes during Sunday's 106-95 victory over the Rockets.

Thompson didn't turn heads with his play by any means, but he was good enough to make an impact as a scoring threat in a game where the Warriors secured a double-digit victory. Thompson is not the same dominant scoring threat he was before his two knee injuries, but he can still get it done and remains a valuable player across all formats. It's also worth noting his scoring figures have been on the rise with each passing game.

Thompson said Friday that he plans on playing in as many back-to-backs as possible during the 2023-24 regular season, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

When asked about potentially playing in both halves of the Warriors' upcoming back-to-back Sunday in Houston and Monday in New Orleans, Thompson said, "that's the plan. I plan to play in as many games as I can." The veteran is clearly confident with his heath at the moment after battling injuries over the last five years, but Golden State will presumably proceed with caution. Last year, Thompson submitted his first full campaign since 2018-19, starting all 69 of his appearances while playing 33.0 minutes per game.

Thompson will start Friday's preseason game against the Lakers and could play into the 20-minute range, Shayna Rubin of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Thompson scored 10 points in 13 minutes of action during the Warriors' preseason opener, but he'll get a minutes bump, along with the rest of Golden State's starters, during Friday's rematch versus Los Angeles. Draymond Green (ankle) remains out, so Chris Paul and Kevon Looney will start alongside Thompson, Stephen Curry and Andrew Wiggins for a second consecutive contest.

Thompson finished Friday's 122-101 loss to the Lakers in Game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals with eight points (3-19 FG, 2-12 3Pt), three rebounds and five assists in 38 minutes.

Thompson had multiple open looks from deep in the contest, but he struggled to connect with an ugly 2-for-12 line from three-point range and 3-of-19 shooting mark overall. The veteran sharpshooter enjoyed a big performance in Golden State's Game 2 win with 30 points on 11-for-18 shooting, but he struggled mightily across the other five matchups in the series, making just 28.4 percent of his shot attempts, including 30.8 percent from deep. Despite the disappointing ending, there's no doubt that Thompson remains one of the league's most feared long-range shooters, a reputation he cemented with a career-high 4.4 triples per contest during the regular season.

Thompson finished Thursday's 127-100 victory over the Lakers in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals with 30 points (11-18 FG, 8-11 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist across 31 minutes.

Thompson exploded for 19 first-half points and stayed hot in the third quarter by scoring a game-high 11 points in the period. However, he didn't play in the fourth as the game transitioned into a blowout with Golden State up by 30 points. Over his previous three appearances, Thompson had shot just 28.6 percent from deep, so Thursday's outing was certainly a nice bounce-back effort. The Warriors will presumably need more of the same from the sharpshooter if they hope to steal back home-court advantage over the next two games.

Thompson closed Tuesday's 117-112 loss to the Lakers in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals with 25 points (9-25 FG, 6-16 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and four assists in 37 minutes.

Thompson finished second on the team in points and hit some timely threes, but overall, it was a poor shooting performance given his lofty standards. The sharpshooter has scored at least 20 points in six of the team's eight postseason games so far, but he's shooting just 41.4 percent from the field and 36.0 percent from deep, both down from his regular-season averages. The Warriors will likely need Thompson in top form Thursday to avoid a 2-0 hole for a second straight series.

Thompson accumulated 16 points (4-19 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five rebounds and one assist in 35 minutes during Sunday's 120-100 win over Sacramento in Game 7 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

Thompson's cold streak continued to trouble him, most notably beyond the arc. He finished the quarterfinals shooting only 35.6 percent from deep, significantly below his season average of 41.2 percent. The Warriors will need all the help they can get against the red-hot Lakers, and an improved result from Thompson would help alleviate the enormous pressure on Stephen Curry to carry the load.

Thompson ended Friday's 118-99 loss to the Kings in Game 6 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals with 22 points (8-20 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT) and two rebounds in 35 minutes.

Thompson reached the 20-point mark for the third straight game and for the fifth time in the series, but he struggled badly from deep -- an issue that has plagued him in most contests. Thompson is averaging 21.3 points per game while shooting 38.1 percent from three-point range so far, a figure that drops to 36.3 percent in the games where the Warriors have lost.

Thompson closed Sunday's 126-125 victory over the Kings in Game 4 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals with 26 points (9-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal in 39 minutes.

Thompson scored an efficient 26 points, producing just when the Warriors needed it most. Despite not being able to contribute on the defensive end to the level we were accustomed to seeing in the past, Thompson still provides the team with much-needed offensive contributions. As long as both he and Stephen Curry are connecting from deep, the Warriors will never say die when it comes to moving forward in the playoffs.

Thompson recorded 21 points (7-13 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal in 38 minutes during Monday's 114-106 loss to the Kings in Game 2 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

Thompson was sharp and finished as one of three Warriors to score at least 20 points, but Golden State dropped a second straight game to Sacramento. The sharpshooter has scored exactly 21 points in each of the first two games of the opening-round series and is shooting 41.7 percent from deep.

Thompson ended Sunday's 157-101 victory over the Trail Blazers with 20 points (7-14 FG, 6-11 3Pt), five rebounds and one assist across 22 minutes.

Thompson and the Warriors raced out to a dominant start against Portland, scoring 55 points in the first quarter alone, and that allowed the starters to take it easy the rest of the way. Thompson had an impressive bounce-back season after being limited by injuries in recent years, and he led the league in three-pointers made with a career-best 301 threes made. Thompson will have several days to rest before starting the team's playoff run against the Kings in the first round of the Western Conference.

Thompson (back) isn't listed on the Warriors' initial injury report for Friday's game against the Kings.

Thompson sat out Tuesday's win over the Thunder due to lower back soreness, but he was able to fully participate in Thursday's practice and has been cleared to suit up Friday. Before his one-game absence, Thompson had appeared in 27 straight games, averaging 23.0 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists with 45/42/84 shooting splits during that stretch.

Thompson (back) fully participated in Thursday's practice session, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Thompson sat out Tuesday against the Thunder due to lower back soreness, but coach Steve Kerr said Thursday that the 33-year-old feels "fine." Barring any setbacks, Thompson appears to be trending toward suiting up Friday against Sacramento.

Thompson (back) will not play in Tuesday's game against the Thunder, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.

Thompson was a late addition to the Warriors' injury report Tuesday with lower back soreness and will ultimately be sidelined for the contest. In his stead, Jordan Poole should enter the starting lineup, while Gary Payton and Moses Moody could see more run off the bench. Thompson's next chance to suit up will come Friday in Sacramento.

Thompson (low back soreness) is questionable for Wednesday against the Thunder.

Thompson is a late addition to Golden State's injury report. If the Warriors end up holding Thompson out, we could see guys like Anthony Lamb and Gary Payton get an extended look.

Thompson recorded 25 points (9-28 FG, 5-16 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 39 minutes during Sunday's 112-110 loss to the Nuggets.

Although Thompson's potential game-winning shot was blocked by Jamal Murray in the final moments, the sharpshooter's massive shot volume allowed him a sizable point total. He converted only 32.1 percent of his shots, so while not particularly accurate, he saw plenty of open looks and found the bottom of the net with five of his 16 three-point attempts.

Thompson finished Friday's 130-115 victory over the Spurs with 31 points (11-18 FG, 7-14 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal across 34 minutes.

Thompson has now drained five or more threes in four games in a row, and he continues to make an impact on offense after putting rather pedestrian numbers in previous months. The veteran shooter has been on a sizzling run since the All-Star break, averaging 22.5 points per game and shooting 43.5 percent from deep over his last 20 appearances.

Thompson ended Sunday's 99-96 loss to Minnesota with 15 points (5-17 FG, 5-11 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 35 minutes.

Although Thompson's numbers have been unpredictable at times, he remains a prolific three-point threat, averaging 10.5 attempts per game with a conversion rate of 40.7 percent. Thompson's overall fantasy value is heavily dependent on his long-range effectiveness, which carries some variance but has huge potential upside on a nightly basis.

Thompson produced 29 points (11-21 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 37 minutes during Monday's 121-108 win over the Rockets.

Coming into Monday's contest, Thompson had averaged just 14.7 points on 38.3 percent shooting, but he bounced back with an efficient night and helped the Warriors snap a three-game losing streak. Thompson hasn't missed a game since Feb. 2 and is averaging 24.0 points on 47/43/84 shooting splits over his past 21 appearances.

Thompson supplied 14 points (6-17 FG, 2-9 3Pt), one rebound and one block over 32 minutes during Saturday's 133-119 loss to the Grizzlies.

Both Thompson and Stephen Curry struggled to put the ball in the hole against Memphis, going a combined 11-for-32 from the field, including 5-for-17 from three-point range. Whereas Curry at least contributed in other ways with eight rebounds and five assists, Thompson added almost nothing on the stat sheet, posting goose eggs aside from one rebound and one block. Perhaps the only positive note is that Thompson managed to extend his streak of games with multiple triples to 24.

Thompson contributed 38 points (14-23 FG, 8-14 3Pt, 2-5 FT), five rebounds, one block and one steal across 34 minutes during Monday's 123-112 victory over Phoenix.

Thompson was practically unstoppable in the first half of the contest, putting up 33 points on a 12-for-18 mark from the field, with eight of his baskets coming from three-point range. He slowed down considerably the rest of the way but still finished with his highest point total of March so far. As usual, Thompson didn't contribute much outside of scoring and triples, but his fantasy managers have come to expect that at this point. The tradeoff is that when the sharpshooter catches fire, he can single-handedly carry a squad in the three-point category -- for instance, this was the seventh time this season he has drained at least eight triples in a game.

Thompson (knee) is starting against the Bucks on Saturday, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson was previously considered probable for this matchup. He's been on fire from beyond the arc lately, hitting a total of 39 triples over his last eight games.

Thompson (right knee soreness) is probable Saturday versus the Bucks.

A probable tag is only a slight concern but it could mean a maintenance day is coming in the near future.

Thompson recorded 23 points (9-17 FG, 5-13 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 40 minutes during Tuesday's 137-128 loss to the Thunder.

Thompson led all players in the first half with 17 points on 7-of-14 shooting while going just 3-of-10 from beyond the arc. The shooting guard was quiet after the break, however, adding just six more points on 2-of-3 shooting to go along with two rebounds and an assist. Despite the lackluster second half, Thompson still finished second on the team in scoring with 23 points on the night and has now broken the 20-point mark in three straight, knocking down at least four threes in each of those contests.

Thompson recorded 27 points (10-17 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound, four assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Friday's 108-99 win over the Pelicans.

Thompson scored at least 20 points for an eighth time over his past 11 appearances. During that stretch, he's connected on at least three triples in each game and is averaging 27.1 points on 48/46/85 shooting splits. Thompson has battled inconsistencies over the past two seasons, but his recent hot stretch has propelled the Warriors to five straight wins.

Thompson finished with 19 points (7-16 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 30 minutes during Thursday's 115-91 win over the Clippers.

Thompson posted decent scoring numbers in this one, but undoubtedly, the 11-rebound haul certainly stands out in what was a strong all-around showing for the veteran en route to his first double-double of the campaign. Thompson has had quite a few ups and downs this season, but he's been very good over the last few weeks. He's averaging 24.9 points per game while shooting 44.9 percent from three-point range since the start of February.

Thompson registered 23 points (8-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 123-105 win over the Trail Blazers.

Thompson continues to be the focal point of Golden State's offense with Stephen Curry (lower leg) and Andrew Wiggins (personal) unavailable. He's averaging 28.0 points while shooting 47 percent from deep over his past nine appearances.

Thompson provided 42 points (12-19 FG, 12-17 3Pt, 6-6 FT), seven rebounds and one assist in 36 minutes during Friday's 116-101 victory over Houston.

Thompson had his way with the Rockets' defense, going 12-of-17 from the perimeter en route to a game-high 42 points. With Stephen Curry (shoulder) still sidelined, Thompson continues to be the go-to option for the Warriors. He has at least four three-pointers in six of his past seven games, delivering top-45 value over the past month. With Curry nearing a return, managers may want to consider selling Thompson off for a top 50 player, should the opportunity present itself.

Thompson logged 22 points (8-19 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and two steals across 27 minutes during Thursday's 124-111 loss to the Lakers.

With Stephen Curry (lower leg) missing his sixth straight game, Thompson again picked up the scoring load, leading the Warriors with 22 points. In this stretch without Curry, Thompson has elevated his scoring to the tune of 25.8 points per contest, and he's averaging a whopping 5.7 triples. As impressive as those numbers are, the sharpshooter's offensive output continues to come with little in the way of peripheral stats -- over the six-game span, Thompson is averaging an underwhelming 2.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.0 steals.

Head coach Steve Kerr relayed Wednesday that Thompson will be available for back-to-backs in the second half of the season, Madeline Kenney of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Thompson played in both ends of a back-to-back to close out the first half, and it appears that's a trend that will continue on the rest of the way. Thompson has seen his efficiency from the field on an upswing recently converting 46.2 percent of his shots from the field and 44.1 percent from deep in his last five games. Thompson's additional availability moving forward likely decreases Donte DiVincenzo's fantasy value once Andrew Wiggins (personal) and Stephen Curry (lower leg) re-enter the equation.

Thompson (rest) will play in Tuesday's game against the Clippers, which is the second night of a back-to-back.

Tuesday marks the first time Thompson has played both ends of a back-to-back since returning from his two-year absence resulting from a torn ACL and Achilles. The veteran has been aggressive this season, launching career highs in both field-goal attempts (18.4) and three-point attempts (10.7). Since the calendar flipped to 2023, he's averaged 25.8 points on 45/42/90 shooting, 4.1 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 35.3 minutes. With Stephen Curry (lower leg) out through the All-Star break, and possibly longer, Thompson will presumably continue taking on more offensive responsibilities.

Thompson registered 27 points (10-21 FG, 4-13 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two steals in 36 minutes Monday against Washington. After the game, coach Steve Kerr stated he was hopeful Thompson could play in the second half of his team's back-to-back Tuesday against the Clippers, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Thompson saw plenty of action Monday, so the team will likely make sure he's feeling strong Tuesday morning before determining his availability for the second half of a back-to-back. If the sharpshooter is cleared to play, it would mark his time taking the court for a back-to-back since suffering his torn right Achilles tendon leading up to the 2021-22 campaign.

Thompson racked up 31 points (12-28 FG, 7-19 3Pt), three rebounds, six assists and two steals in 38 minutes during Wednesday's 125-122 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Thompson and Jordan Poole combined for 69 points Wednesday, but that effort wasn't enough to get past the Blazers in what turned out to be a tight loss. Thompson wasn't precisely efficient, though, needing 28 shots to score 31 points and missing 12 of his 19 three-point attempts. Still, the fact that he's cleared the 30-point mark in the two games Stephen Curry (lower leg) has been out should be an encouraging sign for his fantasy value over the upcoming weeks.

Thompson finished with 42 points (15-22 FG, 12-16 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist over 33 minutes during Monday's 141-114 victory over the Thunder.

Thompson was on fire in the victory, casually pouring in 12 three-pointers en route to a game-high 42 points. With Stephen Curry (knee) likely to miss at least a few weeks, Thompson is going to have to shoulder more of the scoring load moving forward. While he won't offer much in terms of defensive numbers, Thompson's ability to score the ball should be enough to vault him into the top 50, at least until Curry returns.

Thompson (illness) is available for Saturday's game against the Mavericks.

Thompson will return after a one-game absence and play through an illness. Since the calendar flipped to 2023, the veteran has averaged 25.8 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 35.5 minutes.

Thompson is questionable for Saturday's matchup against Dallas due to a non-COVID illness.

Thompson sat out Thursday's matchup against Denver due to right Achilles tendon injury management, but the sharpshooter is now dealing with an aliment that might sideline him for a second straight contest. Draymond Green (calf) is questionable and Stephen Curry (lower leg) is probable, so Golden State may have a number of reserves in the starting lineup Saturday.

Thompson will sit out Thursday at Denver due to right Achilles tendon injury management.

Unsurprisingly, Thompson is out on the second night of a back-to-back. Stephen Curry (shoulder) and Draymond Green (foot) are questionable, so fantasy managers should check in closer to tipoff regarding their availability. Regardless, with Thompson already ruled out, we know there will be more touches for Jordan Poole.

Thompson notched 28 points (10-21 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Monday's 128-120 win over the Thunder.

Thompson hit double-digit field goals, including another six threes, in his second straight game. His 28 points were second only to Stephen Curry for the Warriors. The veteran guard has failed to score at least 24 points only twice since before Christmas. It's worth noting he still sits games for injury management (Achilles) though and they do have a back-to-back coming up this week as well as another one just before the All-Star break.

Thompson (Achilles) is available for Sunday's matchup against the Nets, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

After sitting out the second night of a back-to-back set, Thompson and the rest of Golden State's starting five will be available Sunday. In Thompson's six appearances this month, he's averaged 29.8 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 34.5 minutes.

Thompson has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Cavaliers due to right Achilles tendon injury management.

Thompson hasn't played both halves of back-to-back sets this year, and he's one of several Warriors who will be unavailable following Thursday's overtime loss to the Celtics. Donte DiVincenzo and Moses Moody are candidates to see increased run for the shorthanded club Friday, while Thompson will likely return to action Sunday against Brooklyn.

Thompson finished with 24 points (8-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 36 minutes before fouling out of Thursday's 121-118 overtime loss to the Celtics.

After leading all players with 20 first-half points on 6-of-11 shooting from the field, Thompson attempted just five more shots between the second half and overtime, making two of them for a total of four points. The shooting guard didn't contribute much else stat-wise with just two boards and one assist, though he did grab two steals in the contest for the first time since Dec. 16. Thompson has now scored at least 20 points in eight of his last nine games and is averaging 29.8 points per game in January.

Thompson (knee) will play Thursday against the Celtics, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

Thompson rested Monday against the Wizards, but he'll be able to suit up for Golden State's next game. He's topped 20 points in seven of his last eight appearances and has averaged 29.9 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 35.9 minutes per game during that time.

Thompson netted a team-high 26 points (9-21 FG, 8-15 3Pt) and added four assists and four rebounds across 33 minutes in Sunday's 132-118 loss to the Bulls.

The eight triples were two off a season-high mark for Thompson, who continues to show improved efficient after he sat at a 39.3 percent mark from the field for the season following an 8-for-25 showing in a Christmas Day win over the Grizzlies. In his eight appearances since that time, Thompson has 49.1 percent of his field goals and 45.6 percent of his three-point tries on his way to averaging 30.7 points per contest. Though the 32-year-old is starting to work his way back to All-Star form after missing the entire 2019-20 and 2020-21 seasons, head coach Steve Kerr said Thompson will sit out Monday against the Wizards in the second half of a back-to-back set for maintenance purposes related to his recent bout of left knee soreness, according to Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area. Kerr noted, however, that he still expects Thompson to play both legs of a back-to-back set before the season ends.

Thompson recorded 29 points (10-24 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and one steal in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 125-113 loss to Phoenix.

Thompson scored 14 points in the first quarter and seemed as if he was primed to have a huge night on offense, and while the veteran still led Golden State in scoring, he only scored 15 points in the rest of the game while shooting poorly from three-point range. Thompson has delivered up-and-down performances all season long, but he seems to be turning things around with five straight games of at least 29 points.

Thompson (knee) is available and starting Tuesday against the Suns, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Thompson was considered probable due to the knee issue after he sat out Saturday's contest, and his absence will be limited to one game. The 32-year-old has averaged 33.6 points, 5.6 rebounds and 3.2 assists across his past five games.

Thompson (knee) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Suns.

Thompson was unavailable Saturday against Orlando due to a sore left knee, but he participated in practice and scrimmages Monday. He'll likely return to game action a day later, while Stephen Curry (shoulder) is also considered questionable against Phoenix. Thompson has averaged 33.6 points, 5.6 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 39.2 minutes per game over his last five appearances, but he'll likely split more backcourt work Tuesday if Curry is cleared to return.

Head coach Steve Kerr said Thompson (knee) participated in practice and scrimmages Monday, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

Thompson was a late scratch ahead of Saturday's loss to the Magic due to left knee soreness, but it appears his absence was precautionary, as the sharpshooter has returned to simulated game action. Stephen Curry (shoulder) and Andrew Wiggins, who returned Saturday from a 15-game absence due to a groin injury and an illness, also participated in the scrimmages, so it appears Golden State may be getting a few key pieces to its lineup back in the near future, though Jonathan Kuminga (foot), James Wiseman (ankle) and JaMychal Green (lower leg) still aren't practicing. More clarity on Thompson's availability for Tuesday's matchup against the Suns will surface when the Warriors release their next injury report.

Thompson is a late scratch for Saturday's matchup against the Magic due to left knee soreness, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Thompson had been announced as a starter before being ruled out, so his absence is an odd development. His status ahead of Tuesday's game against the Suns is worth monitoring.

Thompson won't start Saturday's game against the Magic, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

It's unclear what happened with Thompson, as he was announced among the starters but Donte DiVIncenzo ended up taking his place in the backcourt next to Jordan Poole. It remains to be seen if Thompson will be available off the bench throughout the game.

Thompson scored 30 points (11-23 FG, 5-5 Ft, 3-10 3Pt) to go along with two rebounds, three assists, and one block across 34 minutes of play in Wednesday's loss to Detroit.

Thompson has been on a tear over his last five games played, averaging 33.6 PPG through that stretch. Klay was clutch in this one, hitting a game-tying three-pointer in the fourth quarter with one second on the clock before a game-winner by Seddiq Bey gave Detroit the win.

Thompson provided 54 points (21-39 FG, 10-21 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one block across 46 minutes during Monday's 143-141 double-overtime victory over the Hawks.

Thompson turned back the clock Monday night and exploded for a season-high 54 points in a hectic double-overtime win. The sharpshooter has struggled with his efficiency since returning from back-to-back devastating injuries, but he's finding his form with Stephen Curry (shoulder) sidelined. Over his past three games, Thompson is averaging 38.0 points while shooting 50.6 percent from the field and 45.8 percent from deep (16.0 attempts per game). Thompson will look to build off his season-high performance against the Pistons on Wednesday.

Thompson closed with 31 points (11-22 FG, 7-15 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 37 minutes during Friday's 118-112 victory over the Trail Blazers.

Thompson looked locked in from downtown in this one, drilling 46.7 percent of his triples and scoring 21 of his 31 points from deep. This marks his most made threes since Dec. 5, when he knocked down eight of 16 threes against Indiana. Thompson averaged 22.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 11 December appearances, and he'll now set his sights on Golden State's first January matchup Monday against Atlanta.

Thompson (knee) will start in Friday's game against the Trail Blazers.

As usual, Thompson was held out of the second leg of a back-to-back set Wednesday for rest purposes but should return to his typical role Friday.

Thompson (knee) will be available for Friday's game against Portland.

Thompson sat out the team's last game, the second of a back-to-back set, a regular occurrence this season as the Warriors continue to manage his workload. He should be expected to return to his typical role which would mean fewer opportunities for Moses Moody and Anthony Lamb.

Thompson (knee) is out for Wednesday's matchup with the Jazz, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Thompson has been downgraded from doubtful to out Wednesday due to it being the second night of a back-to-back. Fantasy managers should expect him to be back in the lineup for Friday's game against Portland.

Thompson is doubtful to play in Wednesday's game versus the Jazz due to right knee injury management, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Thompson will likely miss Wednesday's game as it is the second night of a back-to-back. Jonathan Kuminga, Moses Moody and Anthony Lamb are candidates to see extended minutes in his potential absence.

Thompson produced 24 points (8-25 FG, 3-12 3Pt, 5-5 FT), nine rebounds and four assists over 40 minutes during Sunday's 123-109 win over the Grizzlies.

Thompson failed to find his usual shooting touch from beyond the arc, but he still managed to put up 24 points and fell one rebound shy of a double-double. Sunday marked his best rebounding performance of the 2022-23 campaign and his best scoring night since Dec. 10 against Boston (34 points).

Thompson (knee) is available for Sunday's Christmas Day matchup against the Grizzlies.

Thompson continues to sit out one half of back-to-back sets, which explains his absence Wednesday. With Stephen Curry (shoulder) out, some big performances from Thompson would go a long way. However, he hasn't scored more than 17 points in any of his past four appearances.

Thomspon won't play in Wednesday's game against the Nets due to right knee injury management, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Thompson is out for Wednesday's game as it is the second night of a back-to-back. Moses Moody, Jonathan Kuminga, Anthony Lamb and Ty Jerome will likely see extended minutes in his absence. Thompson should be good to go for Sunday's matchup with Memphis.

Thompson (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.

As expected, Thompson will suit up for a third straight game despite being tabbed as probable due to left knee soreness. Over his last two appearances, he's posting 14.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.0 steals in 35.0 minutes. While Thompson is available Tuesday, expect him to sit out the second half of Golden State's back-to-back set Wednesday, which has been the case all season.

Thompson (knee) is probable for Monday's matchup against the Knicks.

Thompson is tabbed as probable due to left knee soreness again, but he'll presumably suit up for a third straight contest. Over his past two appearances, the sharpshooter has averaged 14.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.0 steals in 35.0 minutes. While Thompson will likely suit up Monday, expect him to be sidelined for the second half of the Warriors' back-to-back set Tuesday, as has been the case during each of Golden State's back-to-backs this season.

Thompson (knee) is available for Sunday's matchup against Toronto.

Thompson and Draymond Green (quad) were both listed as probable, but they're both in Sunday's starting lineup. The sharpshooter struggled mightily last time out, scoring 12 points on 4-of-17 shooting, but he'll likely get plenty of opportunities to snap out of his slump while Stephen Curry (shoulder) is sidelined.

Thompson has been deemed probable for Sunday's game versus the Raptors due to right knee soreness.

Barring a setback, Thompson should play his usual role in the backcourt, likely starting alongside Jordan Poole and likely Donte DiVincenzo. However, he's seemingly set for an absence either Monday against the Knicks or Tuesday in Brooklyn in one of the team's back-to-back games.

Thompason (knee) is good to go for Friday's game against the 76ers, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Thompson was considered a game-time decision due to knee soreness. Barring any setbacks, he could be in for a healthy workload with Stephen Curry (shoulder) sidelined.

Thompson (knee) will have his status determined following warmups Friday, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Thompson is dealing with left knee soreness and will have to see how his body reacts to pre-game warmups before his status is determined. If he were to miss, Jordan Poole and Donte DiVincenzo would be in line for larger workloads.

Thompson is questionable to play in Friday's matchup with the 76ers due to left knee soreness.

Thompson is questionable to play Friday after sitting out Wednesday. If the sharpshooter doesn't play versus Philadelphia, it would be his first missed game of the season that wasn't part of a back-to-back. Thompson's potential absence would likely mean extended minutes for Jordan Poole and Donte DiVincenzo.

Thompson (injury management) will not take the floor Wednesday versus the Pacers, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Thompson is expected to sit one of the games of back-to-backs all season, so it was predictable that a rest night was coming Wednesday. Jordan Poole and Donte DiVincenzo should pick up a lot of Thompson's available minutes in this one. Thompson should be back on the floor Friday in Philadelphia.

Thompson racked up 34 points (14-26 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals across 36 minutes during Saturday's 123-107 win over Boston.

Thompson wasted no time in getting the Warriors out to an early lead, scoring 12 points in each of the first two quarters on a combined 10-of-17 shooting from the field. He added 10 points in the second half to finish with a game-high 34 on the night as Golden State took care of Boston at home. It was just Thompson's second time this season with 30 or more points and he's now hit at least four threes in three straight contests.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Thompson is out for Saturday's game against the Rockets due to right Achilles tendon management.

Thompson is still sitting on the second legs of back-to-backs Jordan Poole and Donte DiVincenzo should see extended minutes in his absence. Thompson will likely be good to go for Monday's game against Indiana.

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.

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.

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.

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 shots over the last five games.

Thompson provided 20 points (7-16 FG, 6-12 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist over 35 minutes during Friday's 129-118 victory over the Jazz.

Thompson was nearly invisible in the first half, scoring just two points on 1-of-5 shooting while adding one assist and one rebound. 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.

Thompson (rest) will not take the floor Monday against the Pelicans,Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site reports.

As expected, Thompson will sit out the second leg of the Warriors' back-to-back set Monday. He is joined by Stephen Curry and Draymond Green as out due to rest, while Andrew Wiggins and Kevon Looney are also questionable for rest purposes. With the Warriors set to be short-staffed, Jordan Poole, Moses Moody and Donte DiVincenzo should take on most of the backcourt minutes. Thompson is expected to return for the Warriors' next game Wednesday against the Clippers.

Thompson logged 41 points (14-23 FG, 10-13 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals over 36 minutes during Sunday's 127-120 win over Houston.

This was the performance Thompson was looking for all season long, as he had been battling with his shot all campaign long but broke out in a huge way here. While he's miles away from returning to his pre-injury form as one of the deadliest shooters in the league, there's been some improvement of late. He's drained at least three triples in five of his last six outings and is shooting 43.5 percent from deep during that span.

Thompson is expected to play during the first half of the Warriors' upcoming back-to-back Sunday against the Rockets, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Coach Steve Kerr has indicated that Thompson is unlikely to play both ends of back-to-backs, so the implication is that he'll rest Monday against the Pelicans. After a cold start from three, he's picked it up over the past seven appearances. During this stretch, Thompson has averaged 18.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.3 assists while shooting 36.8 percent from distance.

Thompson produced 20 points (8-16 FG, 4-10 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 31 minutes during Friday's 111-101 win over New York.

Thompson scored at least 20 points for just the second time this season, highlighting just what a struggle it has been thus far. Outside the top 200 in standard leagues, a case can be made outlining the fact he could be viewed as a streaming option only. However, given the proven track record, managers should continue to hold, at least for another few weeks, to see if he can build off what was an encouraging performance Friday.

Thompson has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Spurs due to right Achilles tendon injury management.

Thompson hasn't played in the second half of back-to-back sets to begin the regular season, and he'll be sidelined Monday after he posted 17 points, seven rebounds, three assists, a steal and a block in 32 minutes during Sunday's loss to Sacramento. Jordan Poole, Donte DiVincenzo and Moses Moody are candidates to see increased playing time Monday.

Thompson accumulated nine points (3-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal in 29 minutes during Friday's 106-101 victory over the Cavaliers.

Thompson has knocked down just 29.0 percent of his shots from the field and 29.4 percent from beyond the arc over the last pair of games. Unfortunately, things haven't been too much better on the season, with Thompson posting career-worst percentages from the field (34.9), from deep (32.3) and from the free-throw line (75.0). Considering he doesn't offer much fantasy appeal in other categories, he's not a particularly valuable fantasy asset when he's not knocking down treys consistently. The hope is that he can improve on that front.

Thompson totaled 16 points (6-18 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal across 38 minutes during Monday's 116-113 victory over the Kings.

Thompson is having a woeful start to the season, as he's reached the 20-point mark just once in nine contests while also struggling badly from the field. He's attempted more shots than points scored in four games already, and his average of 15.1 points per contest is the lowest mark since his rookie year. Plus, he's also making just 32.6 percent of his three-point attempts, a career-low mark by a wide margin.

Thompson (rest) isn't on the injury report for Monday's game against the Kings.

Thompson rested in the second half of a back-to-back set Friday against the Pelicans, but he'll return to the court for Monday's matchup. The Warriors have said that Thompson may not play both ends of back-to-back sets for the whole season, and the team has two back-to-back sets remaining in November.

Coach Steve Kerr noted Friday that Thompson may not play both ends of back-to-back sets for the whole season, Madeline Kenney of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

The Warriors are currently on the back end of their second back-to-back set of the season Friday, a game in which Klay Thompson will sit out alongside Stephen Curry (rest), Andrew Wiggins (rest) and Draymond Green (rest). With the Warriors having a total of fourteen back-to-backs in 2022-23, Thompson's absence in each could prove to be extremely significant for his season-long fantasy output, especially come playoff time.

Thompson won't suit up Friday against the Pelicans for injury management of his right Achilles.

It's essentially a rest game for Thompson and many of the Warriors' regulars Friday in the second leg of a back-to-back set and the fifth contest of a five-game road trip. Thompson missed a large portion of last season due to an Achilles tear, and the team may be taking a cautious approach with him to open 2022-23.

Thompson contributed 27 points (10-24 FG, 7-15 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Thursday's 130-129 loss to the Magic.

Thompson connected on his first three shots of the game, all coming from three-point range as the Warriors jumped out to an early lead. He finished the first quarter with nine points on 3-of-6 shooting while also grabbing two assists and two rebounds. The Warriors guard hit seven three pointers in the game, including four in the first half, though he didn't do much else, collecting just one rebound and one assist in the second half as the Warriors fell to 0-5 on the road this season. It was Thompson's first game of the season with 20 or more points.

Thompson finished Tuesday's 116-109 loss to Miami with 19 points (7-19 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 31 minutes.

Thompson continued to struggle with his shot in the loss but was able to produce across a range of other categories. This is certainly not the norm for Thompson whose fantasy value typically relies upon his scoring output. It's been a rough start to the season for Thompson and for those who took a chance on him in drafts. He will almost certainly be better than he has been but his days of being a top-50 asset appear to be over.

Thompson (rest) will play and start Tuesday against the Heat.

After being rested for the second half of a back-to-back set, Thompson will be back in the lineup. The Warriors have another back-to-back on Thursday and Friday, so fantasy managers should be on the lookout for another potential rest day for the veteran. He's struggling, shooting just 34.6 percent from the field and 28.6 percent from deep.

Thompson (undisclosed) won't play Sunday against the Pistons, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

While the Warriors have not given any official indication of why Thompson won't feature Sunday, all signs point to him being rested. After all, the veteran guard is coming off a season-high 32 minutes Saturday against the Hornets in which he posted 11 points (5-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt). Jordan Poole should jump into the starting lineup as his replacement.

Thompson will play 27-28 minutes in Friday's matchup with the Heat, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

Head Coach Steve Kerr noted that Draymond Green will also see his minutes increased to around 30 minutes Friday. Through four games, Thompson has averaged 11.0 points, 2.8 assists and 2.5 rebounds in 22.3 minutes per game.

Thompson ended with two points (1-8 FG, 0-5 3Pt), two assists and one block across 19 minutes before getting ejected from Tuesday's 134-105 loss to the Suns.

Thompson was ejected for the first time in his career after things got heated between him and Devin Booker. Unfortunately for the Warriors, Booker remained in the game and took over with the game ending in a blowout. Prior to leaving the game, Thompson struggled to find his rhythm, something that is becoming a bit of a trend. He will obviously be better than this but it does appear as though his days of being an elite scorer could be behind him.

Coach Steve Kerr is expected to bump up Thompson's minute restriction a little for Friday's matchup with the Nuggets, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

No surprise here, as Kerr has previously mentioned that he planned to gradually increase Thompson's minutes as the season gets going. He played just 20 minutes in Tuesday's season opening win over the Lakers, so expect him to see a slight increase from that workload. The 32-year-old recorded 18 points, two rebounds and three assists in his season debut.

Coach Steve Kerr said Thursday that Thompson's minutes restriction should be lifted within a couple weeks, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Kerr said prior to Tuesday's regular-season opener that the Warriors' starters would be eased into action, and Thompson was limited to just 20 minutes against the Lakers. He could see a slight increase in playing time Friday against the Nuggets, but it'll likely take a few weeks for the 32-year-old to be up to a full workload. Despite his minutes restriction Tuesday, Thompson was efficient and logged 18 points, two rebounds, three assists and a steal in 20 minutes.

Thompson contributed 18 points (6-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal in 20 minutes during Tuesday's 123-109 win over the Lakers.

Thompson logged just 20 minutes in the win, something that is likely to stick, at least for the first few games. Prior to the game, head coach Steve Kerr went on record stating that Thompson would be eased back into things after a limited preseason. While this does cut into his short-term value, he remains a solid mid-round option who should clearly be rostered everywhere.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr said that Thompson will likely play less than 30 minutes in Tuesday's season opener versus the Lakers, Mark Medina of NBA.com reports.

Thompson only played 17 minutes in the Warriors' preseason finale last Thursday and will likely see reduced minutes to start the season as he amps up his conditioning. The sharp-shooting guard will have his minutes increase as the season progresses.

Thompson (rest/knee) will rejoin the action Friday for the preseason finale against the Nuggets, Shayna Rubin of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Per Kerr, Thompson is expected to play between 15-18 minutes in the contest after he took part in Wednesday's scrimmage. Thompson's availability Friday indicates he should be ready to go for the start of the regular season. Thompson should resume his starring role alongside Stephen Curry in Golden State's backcourt in 2022-23 as they take aim at back-to-back league titles.

Thompson (rest/knee) scrimmaged Wednesday and is on track to play in Friday's preseason finale against the Nuggets, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson has been sidelined from recent scrimmages and preseason games while the team monitors his health following his first NBA season since the 2018-19 campaign. His absences have been viewed as precautionary, but Golden State still wanted to see him back in action once before the regular season starts. Barring any setbacks from the scrimmage, Slater suggests Thompson will make his preseason debut Friday and be ready for next Tuesday's regular-season matchup against the Lakers. However, fantasy managers should still expect the sharpshooter to be subjected to periodic rest as the Warriors attempt to keep Thompson for another potential championship run.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr said Thompson (rest/knee) will not play in Tuesday's preseason game versus the Trail Blazers but might play Friday, Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Thompson has yet to play in the preseason due to load management. There is no indication that the sharpshooter will miss any regular-season action, but he is questionable to play in Friday's preseason game against the Nuggets.

Thompson (rest/knee) won't play in Sunday's preseason game against the Lakers, Kerith Burke of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Thompson has missed the Warriors' first two preseason matchups and was unable to take part in the team's scrimmage Thursday. As a result, coach Steve Kerr confirmed that the 32-year-old will be held out for a third consecutive game. Thompson's next chance to suit up will be Tuesday against the Trail Blazers.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said Wednesday that his guess is Thompson (rest/knee) will be ready for the regular season opener but added, "it's not something we can say yes or no on," Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson sat out both of the team's preseason contests against the Wizards in Japan and has already been deemed unlikely to play in Sunday's matchup against Lakers. Per Slater, Thompson went through controlled live contract work during a heavier practice Wednesday, but the sharpshooter is still expected to sit out the team's scrimmage Thursday and Sunday's preseason game. Warriors want Thompson to suit up for at least one of the final three exhibition games before committing to his availability for Oct. 18's regular season opener against the Lakers.

Warriors head coach Steve Nash said Tuesday that he doubts Thompson (rest) will scrimmage Thursday, which would rule him out for Sunday's preseason game against the Lakers, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson didn't play in either of the team's preseason games in Japan, and it appears he'll remain sidelined for Sunday's contest out of an abundance of caution. The veteran sharpshooter returned from a two-year absence last season and appeared in 54 games, including the Warriors championship run. His lack of participation in preseason shouldn't be overly concerning to fantasy managers, but it may be a sign that Golden State plans to give Thompson plenty of days off during the regular season to ensure he's as healthy as he can be for the stretch run.

Thompson (rest) didn't play in Friday's preseason opener against the Wizards in Japan and will also sit out Sunday's rematch, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson returned from a two-year absence last season and played in 54 games between the regular season and playoffs, so coach Steve Kerr is exercising caution for the two exhibition matchups versus the Wizards in Japan. The 32-year-old could make his preseason debut Oct. 9 versus the Lakers.

Thompson (rest) didn't play in Friday's preseason opener against the Wizards in Japan and will also sit out Sunday's rematch, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson returned from a two-year absence last season and played in 54 games between the regular season and playoffs, so coach Steve Kerr is exercising caution for the two exhibition matchups versus the Wizards in Japan. The 32-year-old could make his preseason debut Oct. 9 versus the Lakers.

Thompson supplied 12 points (5-20 FG, 2-8 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and two steals in 41 minutes during Thursday's 103-90 win over the Celtics in Game 6 of the NBA Finals.

Thompson shot just 36.9 percent from the field in the finals, but is nonetheless a champion. Concluding his triumphant return after missing two years with injuries, Thompson earns his fourth ring alongside Draymond Green and Stephen Curry -- tied with Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili for the most of any great trio in NBA history.

Thompson accumulated 21 points (7-14 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals in 40 minutes during Monday's 104-94 win over the Celtics in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

Thompson finished as Golden State's second-leading scorer in the contest, and he converted five of the team's nine made three-pointers. The sharpshooter helped make up for an uncharacteristically poor shooting night by Stephen Curry, who missed all nine of his attempts from beyond the arc in the contest. Thompson has provided steady but unspectacular output in the series thus far, averaging 18.0 points, 3.6 three-pointers, 2.6 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.2 steals through five games.

Thompson ended Wednesday's 116-100 loss to Boston in Game 3 of the NBA Finals with 25 points (7-17 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 39 minutes.

Thompson combined for just 26 points over the first two games of the Finals, but he bounced back to nearly match that total in Game 3. Five of his seven field goals came from beyond the arc after the sharpshooter knocked down just one triple in Game 2. Thompson's effort was not enough, however, as Golden State fell into a 2-1 series deficit with the loss.

Thompson ended Wednesday's 116-100 loss to Boston in Game 3 of the NBA Finals with 25 points (7-17 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 39 minutes.

Thompson combined for just 26 points over the first two games of the Finals, but he bounced back to nearly match that total in Game 3. Five of his seven field goals came from beyond the arc after the sharpshooter knocked down just one triple in Game 2. Thompson's effort was not enough, however, as Golden State fell into a 2-1 series deficit with the loss.

Thompson notched 15 points (6-14 FG, 3-7 3Pt), two rebounds and three assists in 39 minutes during Thursday's 120-108 loss to the Celtics in Game 1 of the NBA Finals.

Thompson led Golden State with 39 minutes in the contest, but he finished with just 15 points. He did fine with a 6-for-14 shooting mark (including 3-for-7 from three-point range), but the sharpshooter notched limited complementary stats and simply didn't do enough on offense to take the load off Stephen Curry (34 points) as the Warriors dropped Game 1. Thompson has shown throughout the postseason that he can be a prolific scorer, notching three games of 30-plus points and averaging 19.5 points and 3.5 three-pointers across 17 games overall.

Thompson produced 32 points (12-25 FG, 8-16 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Thursday's 120-110 victory over the Mavericks in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.

Thompson exploded for his third 30-plus point game of the postseason and led the Warriors to a critical Game 5 win. Across 16 playoff contests, the sharpshooter has averaged 19.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.0 steals in 35.1 minutes per game.

Thompson notched 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound, one assist and two steals in 28 minutes during Tuesday's 119-109 loss to Dallas in Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals.

Thompson has struggled to become a factor in the current series against the Mavericks and has surpassed the 15-point mark just once in four games. What's even more worrisome is the fact that he's shooting just 34.2 percent from three-point range over his last 10 games.

Thompson logged 19 points (6-18 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds and three assists over 39 minutes during Sunday's 109-100 win over the Mavericks in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals.

The Warriors were once again able to hold off Dallas and take a commanding 3-0 lead as they continue to position themselves for another Finals berth. Thompson failed to crack 20 points for the third straight game -- and for the fifth time in six games -- but he was able to snap out of a mini-slump from three after hitting just 2-of-8 attempts attempts in Games 1 and 2. For the postseason, Thompson is shooting just under 40 percent from three on nearly nine attempts per contest.

Thompson racked up 15 points (6-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and five assists over 37 minutes during Friday's 126-117 victory over the Mavericks in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals.

Thompson scored 15 points for the second game in a row, but he wasn't efficient from deep and the team suffered because of that. The fact that he's made one or fewer threes in three of Golden State's last five games has hurt the team's offense and spacing thus far.

Thompson finished Wednesday's 112-87 win over the Mavericks in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals with 15 points (7-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and two blocks in 35 minutes.

Thompson was held scoreless on 0-for-4 shooting in the first half of the contest, but he got going with 11 points on 5-for-7 shooting from the field in the third quarter. He finished with 15 points and chipped in five boards, four assists and two blocks. Thompson is averaging 19.9 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.2 dimes, 3.6 three-pointers and 1.1 steals across 12 postseason contests overall.

Thompson put up 30 points (11-22 FG, 8-14 3PT), eight rebounds, three blocks and two assists during Friday's 110-96 win over Memphis.

Thompson exploded for his second-highest point total of the postseason to help Golden State advance to the Western Conference Finals. The five-time All-Star has shot at least 50.0 percent from three-point range in three of his last four games. He'll look to stay hot in the next round.

Thompson had 19 points (7-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 25 minutes during Wednesday's 134-95 loss to the Grizzlies.

The Warriors were blown out by Memphis in Game 5, and Thompson was one of very few bright spots for Golden State in the loss. After missing all seven of his three-point tries in Game 4, the sharpshooter bounced back with a 3-for-6 effort from beyond the arc en route to a team-high 19 points. Thompson has exceeded the 20-point mark only once so far in the series, yet he and the Warriors can close things out with a win in Game 6 on Friday.

Thompson registered 14 points (6-20 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 38 minutes during Monday's 101-98 victory over Memphis.

Thompson had a rough shooting night in the Game 4 win, as he missed all seven of his attempts from deep and finished with a 6-for-20 mark from the field overall. He did have an impact in other areas, however, grabbing seven boards and recording a pair of blocks along with one steal. Thompson came into the contest averaging 3.9 three-pointers per game in the playoffs, but he is shooting just 35.2 percent in the first four games against the Grizzlies.

Thompson chipped in 21 points (8-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds and four assists over 35 minutes during Saturday's 142-112 win over the Grizzlies.

Although Thompson has shown flashes of brilliance since returning to the team in January, his excellent all-around performance in Game 3 was decisive and dominant. He shot 62.5 percent from the floor and converted 66.6 percent of his shots beyond the arc in the blowout win, and his numbers would have been more potent if the Warriors hadn't emptied their bench with the game out of hand. Thompson also matched a season-high with nine rebounds. The controversial foul and subsequent suspension of Dillon Brooks has lit a fire under the Warriors' starters, and Thompson particularly seemed motivated to inflict maximum pain Saturday night.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said Thompson (knee) is "fine" and will play in Tuesday's Game 2 against the Grizzlies, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Kerr said Thompson "banged his knee" during Sunday's Game 1 victory, but as expected, the sharpshooter will be available after being listed as probable. Thompson struggled with his shot in Game 1, but across six playoff games so far, he's averaged 21.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.3 steals.

Thompson is listed as probable for Tuesday's Game 2 against the Grizzlies.

Thompson connected on the game-winning three-pointer en route to 15 points (6-19 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 0-2 FT) during Sunday's Game 1 win, but the sharpshooter came away from the victory a little sore. Nonetheless, barring a major setback, Thompson will likely be available for Game 2. He's averaged 21.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.3 steals across six playoffs games so far.

Thompson provided 15 points (6-19 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 0-2 FT), one rebound, three assists, one block and two steals in 31 minutes during Sunday's 117-116 win over the Grizzlies.

Thompson hit some big shots in the second half, but overall it wasn't a fantastic game for the sharpshooter, who took a backseat to Jordan Poole (31 points off the bench) and Stephen Curry (24 points). While Poole continues to establish himself as a major player in the Warriors' rotation, Thompson remains one of the league's elite complementary stars. He closed Golden State's Round 1 series against Denver with averages of 22.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 4.4 threes (45.8% 3Pt) across five games.

Thompson amassed 15 points (5-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, one block and four steals in 40 minutes during Wednesday's 102-98 win over Denver.

Thompson tied Gary Payton for second on the team with 15 points in the contest, but it was his work in other areas that stood out. The sharpshooter's nine boards were two more than he had previously grabbed in any game this season, and he also doubled his season-best mark with four steals. This was Thompson's lowest scoring effort of the series, but the increased production across the box score largely makes up for the modest point total.

Thompson posted 32 points (12-20 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and two steals over 31 minutes during Sunday's 126-121 loss to the Nuggets.

While the Warriors came up short of pulling off the sweep, it was yet another strong effort from Thompson, who was coming off of a 26-point, six-three-pointer performance in Thursday's Game 3 victory. Prior to that, Thompson had 21 points and three threes in Game 2, as well as 19 points and five three-pointers in Game 1.

Thompson registered 26 points (10-18 FG, 6-13 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and two blocks across 37 minutes during Thursday's 118-113 victory over Denver.

Thompson has taken some sort of "secondary" role on offense with Stephen Curry shining off the bench and Jordan Poole being a massive success in his postseason debut, but Thompson still provides excellent value in most formats due to his scoring ability and his efficient. The star guard is averaging 22.0 points per game while shooting 45.2 percent from deep in the series, but he could use an uptick in other categories. He's only averaging 2.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game through his first three postseason appearances.

Thompson amassed 21 points (9-19 FG, 3-8 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one block across 36 minutes during Monday's 126-106 victory over the Nuggets.

Stephen Curry (34 points) and Jordan Poole (29 points) were the offensive stars for Golden State in the playoff win, but Thompson came up big with 21 points of his own. The veteran shooting guard finished with his usual tepid assortment of complementary stats, but that's to be expected as he hasn't grabbed more than five boards since March 25 and hasn't dished more than four dimes since March 12. Poole's emergence near the end of the season along with Curry's return to action has pushed Thompson into more of a third option on offense, though he's capable of going on a scoring spree at any given time. The sharpshooter is averaging 20.0 points and 4.0 three-pointers through the first two games of the series against Denver.

Thompson (Achilles) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Pelicans.

Thompson sat out Saturday's win over the Spurs to manage his right Achilles, but he'll be back in the starting lineup for the regular-season finale. Over his last five appearances, the sharpshooter has averaged 28.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 36.6 minutes per game.

Thompson has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Spurs due to right Achilles injury management.

Thompson tallied 33 points, four rebounds and four assists in 33 minutes during Thursday's win over the Lakers, but he'll sit out for the penultimate game of the regular season. Gary Payton, Damion Lee and Moses Moody should see an uptick in usage.

Thompson chipped in 33 points (12-22 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and four assists in 33 minutes during Thursday's 128-112 victory over the Lakers.

Thompson put on a shooting display in the win, making six of 10 three-point tries and going 12-for-22 from the field overall. The sharpshooter registered his third game of 30-plus points over his past five appearances. Over that span, Thompson is averaging 28.8 points, 4.4 boards and 3.2 assists while draining 5.8 triples per game.

Thompson has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Kings due to rest purposes.

Thompson exploded for 36 points (14-28 FG, 8-17 3Pt) during Saturday's comeback win over the Jazz, but he'll be sidelined for the second half of the Warriors' back-to-back set as he continues to work his way back from an Achilles injury. In his absence, Gary Payton is expected to join the starting lineup, while the likes of Damion Lee and Moses Moody may garner increased roles off the bench.

Thompson amassed 36 points (14-28 FG, 8-17 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists in 39 minutes during Saturday's 111-107 win over the Jazz.

Thompson went 5-for-21 in a mediocre 13-point showing in his previous game, but he turned things around dramatically Saturday. The star guard registered his fourth game of 30-plus points this season and knocked down eight three-pointers for the third time in his past nine contests. Over that stretch, he is averaging 25.1 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 4.9 treys.

Thompson chipped in 13 points (5-21 FG, 1-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and four assists across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 107-103 loss to the Suns.

Thompson hoisted 21 shots in the contest, but he converted only five of them and went a miserable 1-for-10 from three-point range. He wasn't much of a contributor in other categories, finishing with an ugly fantasy stat line. Thompson entered the game having scored 62 combined points over his previous two contests, so he clearly still has the ability to get hot at any time. However, his 41.3 percent field-goal rate is on pace for the lowest mark of his career.

Thompson (rest) will not play Monday at Memphis, Kendra Andrews of ESPN reports.

As expected, Thompson will be one of several Warriors regulars who will not play Monday on the second night of a back-to-back set. Thompson finished Sunday's loss to the Wizards with 25 points and five three-pointers in 37 minutes. Expect him to return to the lineup Wednesday against the Suns.

Coach Steve Kerr said Sunday that Thompson will "most likely" sit out Monday against the Grizzlies for rest purposes, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

Thompson started Sunday's game against Washington and tallied 25 points (10-22 FG, 5-13 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists in 37 minutes during the loss. He's played at least 31 minutes in each of his last 10 appearances, and it appears as though he'll get a breather in the second half of a back-to-back set.

Thompson amassed 37 points (14-26 FG, 9-16 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists and one block across 40 minutes during Friday's 121-110 loss to the Hawks.

Thompson was back in the lineup Friday, pouring in a team-high 37 points, including nine triples. Outside of some load management, it's fair to say Thompson has been able to round into form nicely since coming back from injury. He has now scored at least 20 points in four of his past six games, continuing to shoulder more of the scoring load with Steph Curry on the sideline. He typically doesn't offer a lot in terms of peripheral numbers but his points and threes alone make him a solid mid-round fantasy target.

Thompson (rest) will play Friday against the Hawks.

After resting on the second night of a back-to-back, Thompson will be back in action Friday. Over his past seven games, he's averaged 21.9 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 33.9 minutes.

Thompson (rest) won't play Wednesday against the Heat, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson totaled 15 points (6-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three assists, two rebounds and two steals in 32 minutes during Tuesday's loss to the Magic. As expected, he'll sit out the second half of the Warriors' back-to-back set and should be available when Golden State returns to action Friday in Atlanta. In his absence, Gary Payton, Moses Moody and Damion Lee will all likely see increased roles against Miami.

Thompson chipped in 24 points (9-22 FG, 6-12 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal across 38 minutes during Sunday's 110-108 loss to the Spurs.

While the Warriors came up short on a Keldon Johnson tip-in with less than one second remaining, it was another encouraging effort from Thompson, who has completely shed any playing-time limitations. His 38 minutes Sunday were his most since making his return, and he drilled six three-pointers after a rough, 1-of-11 showing from downtown in the Warriors' previous game against Boston. Golden State is heading into a four-game week, but it begins with a Tuesday/Wednesday back-to-back set, so Thompson will likely sit one of those contests.

Thompson amassed 18 points (8-24 FG, 1-11 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 110-88 loss to the Celtics.

Thompson muddled through a mediocre shooting night, but it was enough to be the Warriors' second-highest scorer. Additional responsibility may fall on Thompson's shoulders very soon, as Stephen Curry (foot) will soon undergo an MRI to determine the severity of Wednesday's foot injury.

Thompson finished with 20 points (7-19 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 33 minutes during Monday's 126-112 victory over Washington.

Thompson had a few off performances following his 33-point game against the Lakers on Feb. 12, and while the efficiency is still not there, at least he seems to be turning a corner from a numbers perspective. He's now scored at least 20 points in three of his last four appearances.

Thompson closed with 38 points (15-24 FG, 8-14 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal over 34 minutes during Saturday's 122-109 victory over the Bucks.

With Stephen Curry having a rare off night by scoring only eight points, Thompson stepped up as the leading scorer for the Warriors. The 32-year-old still isn't playing in back-to-back games, but he's otherwise beginning to look fully recovered from the injuries that cost him the last two seasons, averaging 25.3 points, 4.7 boards, 4.0 threes, 2.7 assists and 1.7 blocks over the last three games.

Thompson produced 18 points (7-20 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal over 33 minutes during Thursday's 113-102 win over Denver.

Thompson didn't have his finest shooting night, but he gave fantasy managers who roster him a nice defensive boost with two blocked shots, marking his third straight game with multiple swats. That has been the biggest positive for him of late, as the sharpshooter continues to struggle with his shot. Over the three-game stretch, Thompson is averaging 15.0 points but shooting just 33.9 percent from the field and 22.7 percent from deep.

Thompson contributed 20 points (9-23 FG, 2-9 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 112-97 victory over the Clippers.

Thomson is a huge fan of the movie "Semi-Pro", and none other than Will Ferrell showed up for the Warriors' pre-game shootaround, dressed in his Jackie Moon jersey. It was a treat for Thompson, who went as Jackie Moon for Halloween a few years ago. Ferrell's appearance seemed to put the whole team in a cheerful mood, and it was just what they needed after their recent skid. Thompson seemed especially relaxed, putting up 23 shot attempts in the win. He wasn't all that accurate, but his five rebounds and two blocks helped pad his fantasy numbers.

Thompson is not listed on the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Clippers.

As expected, all signs point to Thompson returning to the lineup Tuesday night after he was among several players held out of Monday's loss at Denver. Thompson is coming off of a disappointing showing in Saturday's loss to the Lakers, which he finished with just seven points on 3-of-13 shooting. However, he did chip in six boards, four assists, one steal and three blocks in 31 minutes.

Thompson (rest) will not play in Monday's game against the Nuggets, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

After Saturday's loss to the Lakers, coach Steve Kerr announced that Thompson, Stephen Curry and Andrew Wiggins will all be held out of Monday's game, which falls on the front end of a back-to-back set. Thompson, who finished Saturday's game with just seven points (3-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt) in 31 minutes, should be back in the lineup for Tuesday's home matchup against the Clippers.

Thompson chipped in 16 points (6-17 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one block across 28 minutes during Thursday's 122-113 loss to the Mavericks.

After missing multiple contests due to general illness, Thompson struggled to connect on his looks and failed to contribute elsewhere in the box score. There are better days ahead for the prolific shooter, with a strong opportunity coming against the porous Lakers on Saturday.

Thompson (illness) is available for Thursday's game against the Mavericks.

Thompson indicated Wednesday that he expected to suit up against Dallas, and he'll officially be back in action following a two-game absence. He's averaged 18.2 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 28.6 minutes per game across his last five appearances.

Thompson (illness) said Wednesday that he expects to play in Thursday's game against the Mavericks, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson is officially listed as questionable ahead of Thursday's matchup. However, he participated in practice Wednesday and will likely be back in action Thursday after missing the last two games due to an illness. He scored in double figures in six of his seven appearances in February and averaged 19.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 28.0 minutes per game.

Thompson (illness) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Mavericks, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

Thompson has missed the past two games due to an illness but practiced Wednesday, so it seems like his chances of making a return are good. He continues to play well, and in February, he averaged 19.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 28.0 minutes.

Thompson (illness) is listed as out for Tuesday's game against Minnesota.

Thompson is still battling the non-COVID illness that sidelined him for Sunday's loss to Dallas, and he'll miss a second straight contest. It's not the most encouraging sign that he's been ruled out more than 24 hours ahead of time, though the hope is that he'll be able to return for Thursday's rematch with the Mavs in Dallas.

Thompson (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Mavericks.

Thompson has been downgraded to out after initially being listed as questionable. In his absence, Otto Porter, Damion Lee and Jordan Poole are all candidates for increased roles. Thompson's next chance to suit up will come Tuesday against the Timberwolves.

Thompson is questionable for Sunday's game against the Mavericks due to an illness.

Thompson was productive in Thursday's blowout win over the Trail Blazers, as he totaled 18 points, five rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes. If his illness prevents him from playing Sunday, Otto Porter, Damion Lee and Moses Moody should see increased run.

Thompson notched 18 points (6-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes during Thursday's 132-95 win over Portland.

Thompson and Stephen Curry co-led Golden State with 18 points apiece Thursday in spite of the fact that neither player saw the court in the fourth quarter. Thompson did most of his damage from beyond the arc, knocking down four three-pointers on seven attempts. The veteran continues to be a valuable source of triples for fantasy managers who roster him, though his production has always been tempered by unspectacular peripheral stats.

Thompson (Achilles) said "I think I'm at like 80 percent" during an interview with Anthony Slater of The Athletic the day after Super Bowl.

Thompson's recovery from back-to-back devastating injuries has been well documented, but the three-time NBA champion isn't taking anything for granted and, despite finally returning to game action, still feels like there's a long way to go before he's back to the player he was before the injuries. He's appeared in 16 of 21 contests -- sitting out back-to-back games just once -- this season and is averaging 17.1 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.1 assists across 25.3 minutes per game. Golden State has been adamant about keeping a close eye on his playing time, but he did garner 30-plus minutes in three of the Warriors' last four games before the All-Star break. Thompson is shooting just 41.8 percent from the field and 37.4 percent from distance, which would both be career lows, though there has been conversations about the long stints on the bench impacting his ability to find any in-game rhythm. However, Thompson appears to be more worried about the defensive side of the ball, "as far as my lateral quickness, it's a

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.

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.

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.

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 to be 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.

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

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.

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.

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 surprisingly given the substantial time off. Fantasy managers who roster him should expect his field-goal percentage to rise as the season progresses.

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

With 11 games under his belt since making his debut on 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.

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

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.

Thompson finished Monday's 122-108 win over the Rockets with 14 points (6-15 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block in 26 minutes. He'll sit out the second half of the Warriors' back-to-back set Tuesday in San Antonio, according to Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Meanwhile, Otto Porter (foot), who sat out Monday, is expected to return to action Tuesday and should absorb most of Thompson's minutes along with his spot in the starting five. The Warriors are likely to continue holding Thompson out for one half of back-to-back sets as a precaution following two seasons lost to major injuries. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Thompson has struggled to rediscover his deft shooting touch since returning Jan. 9 following a lengthy layoff. He's scored in double figures in all 10 of his games to date, but he's converting at a lowly 40.6 percent rate from the field and a 32.9 percent rate from distance.

Thompson will play in Monday's game against Houston before resting for Tuesday's matchup against the Spurs, Connor Letourneau of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

As was the case for the Warriors' previous two back-to-backs since Thompson returned, he'll play on the front end and sit on the back end as the team continues to keep a close eye on his workload. For the most part, Thompson has looked good since making his debut Jan. 9 against Cleveland. He had one dud against Indiana on Jan. 20 (12 points, 0-7 3Pt), but other than that he's looked as cool and confident as ever. He's hit multiple three-pointers in every game except for that Pacers matchup.

Thompson recorded 23 points (9-16 FG, 5-9 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and one block in 27 minutes during Thursday's 124-115 victory over the Timberwolves.

Thompson trailed only Stephen Curry (29 points) for team high-scoring honors in a contest that featured 11 total three-pointers between the sharpshooting duo. That included a season-best five triples from Thompson, who also logged a season-high 27 minutes of playing time. Thompson seems to be finding his shooting stroke after his long layoff. He shot only 37.2 percent over his first six games but has gone 15-for-28 (53.6 percent) over his past two contests.

Thompson racked up 15 points (6-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two rebounds and six assists across 26 minutes during Tuesday's 130-92 victory over the Mavericks.

After missing the previous two games due to rest and a sore knee, Thompson looked spry in the blowout victory, drilling three three-pointers and handing out a season-high six dimes in 26 minutes of action -- his biggest workload since returning from injury. Golden State doesn't play another back-to-back until the second week of February, so barring more soreness in his knee, Thompson should be a fixture in the lineup at shooting guard.

Thompson (knee) will play Tuesday against the Mavericks, Callie Caplan of The Dallas Morning News reports.

After two missed games with some knee soreness, Thompson will be back in the fold. In his six appearances, he's averaged 14.7 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 21.5 minutes.

Coach Steve Kerr said Thompson (knee) didn't practice Monday and is considered questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Mavericks, Kendra Andrews of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Thompson was held out of Friday's game against Houston to rest on the second night of a back-to-back, but the expectation was that he'd be back Sunday. However, he was sidelined again due to soreness in his surgically repaired left knee. This all appears to be precautionary, but the longer he remains sidelined, the harder it is for fantasy managers to be optimistic. If he's ultimately ruled out again, expect Jordan Poole to make another appearance in the Warriors' starting lineup.

Thompson (knee) will not play Sunday against Utah, Kendra Andrews of ESPN reports.

The Warriors held Thompson out of Friday's game against Houston to rest on the second night of a back-to-back, but the expectation was that he'd be back in action Sunday. According to coach Steve Kerr, Thompson is dealing with some soreness in his surgically repaired left knee, so the team will hold him out on what looks to be a precautionary basis. Expect Jordan Poole to make another start in Thompson's place.

Thompson (rest) has been ruled out of Friday's contest against the Rockets, Connor Letourneau of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Thompson will miss the Warriors' second game of their back-to-back as he will rest after playing the Pacers on Thursday night. Expect the guard to return to the starting lineup Sunday, when Golden State takes on Utah. Expect Jordan Poole to start in Thompson's spot Friday.

Thompson recorded 21 points (6-13 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two steals over 22 minutes during Tuesday's 102-86 victory over the Pistons.

The fans at Chase Arena blew the roof off with every successful shot from Thompson, and his mere presence in the starting five shows just how potent the Warriors will be down the stretch. Smart managers have had Thompson stuffed on their bench all season, and although he only logged 22 minutes as he slowly regains his footing, he's already making a massive impact and should be rostered in all formats.

Thompson recorded 13 points (5-14 FG, 3-8 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 23 minutes during Sunday's 119-99 loss to the Timberwolves.

After resting Friday against Chicago on the second night of a back-to-back, Thompson made his return to the starting lineup but remained on a soft minutes restriction in his fourth appearance of the season. He's scored in double-figures and hit multiple threes in all four games thus far, but Thompson is a combined 20-of-56 (35.7% FG) from the field, so he's still shaking off some rust. Whether he plays in both halves of the Warriors Thursday/Friday back-to-back set this week will be something to monitor.

Thompson will play in Thursday's contest against the Bucks and rest Friday against the Bulls, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

The Warriors will take it easy with Thompson on back-to-backs, so fantasy managers rostering him to should keep that in mind when planning for future weeks. When Thompson sits out Friday, more minutes should be available for Damion Lee.

Thompson supplied 14 points (5-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 20 minutes during Tuesday's 116-108 loss to the Grizzlies.

For the second straight game, Thompson played exactly 20 minutes as the Warriors continue to closely monitor his workload in the early stages of his return. Thompson sat for much of the second half before checking into the game for the final minutes of the fourth quarter, but he was unable to propel the Warriors past a Grizzlies team that's now reeled off 10 straight wins. Nonetheless, Thompson's first two games have been encouraging, as he's posted a combined 31 points, six rebounds, four assists, two blocks one steal and five three-pointers (5-13 3Pt).

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said Tuesday that Thompson (Achilles) will remain on a minutes restriction during Tuesday's matchup with the Grizzlies, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Thompson drew the start at shooting guard and played 20 minutes during his first appearance since the 2019 NBA Finals. The star guard still saw plenty of volume despite the restriction, scoring 17 points on 18 shot attempts, so he's still expected to be a solid fantasy contributor. Kerr also mentioned that Thompson won't play in both games of the upcoming back-to-back, but they haven't decided if he will rest Thursday at Milwaukee or Friday at Chicago, so fantasy managers should continue to monitor Thompson's status closely.

Thompson logged 17 points (7-18 FG, 3-8 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block over 20 minutes during Sunday's 96-82 win over the Cavaliers.

Thompson was expected to play between 15 to 20 minutes in his first appearances since the 2019 NBA Finals, and he saw far more volume than anyone could have predicted -- he attempted 18 field goals in only 20 minutes of action. He should ramp up as the season progresses and it will be a while before he's back to his regular usage levels, but the sole idea of seeing him on the court after such a long spell on the sidelines is positive for the Warriors.

Thompson will start Sunday night's game against the Cavaliers, Marc Spears of ESPN reports.

On Saturday, the Warriors confirmed that Thompson will make his highly anticipated season debut Sunday night, and the team has since announced that he'll start at his customary shooting guard spot alongside Stephen Curry. It's unclear how many minutes Thompson will see, but either way it figures to be a raucous environment for the sharpshooter's first game since the 2019 NBA Finals against Toronto.

Thompson (Achilles) will officially make his return Sunday against the Cavaliers, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

As expected, Thompson will make his highly-anticipated and long-awaited return since last playing in June of 2019. Before suffering a torn ACL and Achilles, Thompson was coming off five straight All-Star appearances, with averages of 21.6 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.2 threes, 2.4 assists and 1.5 combine steals-plus-blocks. He's expected to start Sunday's game, but he'll see limited minutes.

Thompson (Achilles) is expected to make his season debut Sunday against Cleveland, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

The Warriors indicated early in the week that they were optimistic Thompson could take the court Sunday, and he's expected to gain his final clearance Saturday. He's expected to start against the Cavaliers, but coach Steve Kerr said that the 31-year-old will likely be limited to 15-20 minutes of playing time during his first game back on the court.

The Warriors are optimistic that Thompson (Achilles) will be able to make his season debut Sunday against the Cavaliers, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Thompson has been working on his conditioning since resuming 5-on-5 work in late November, and he's closing in on his first game action since June of 2019. The Warriors return from a two-game road trip Friday, and the team is expected to make a decision regarding Thompson's status after returning to the Bay Area. If he's ultimately cleared to return Sunday, it wouldn't be surprising to see him on a minutes restriction following his lengthy absence.

Thompson (Achilles) is targeting a return to the court in January, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

The Warriors are hopeful that Thompson will be able to make his season debut during one of the team's home games in January. The Warriors haven't ruled out a return for the Jan. 3 matchup against Miami, but they're more hopeful that Thompson will be available Jan. 9 against the Cavaliers or Jan. 18 against Detroit. The 21-year-old resumed 5-on-5 work in late November and has been working on his conditioning since then.

Thompson (Achilles) will not debut until Dec. 28 against the Nuggets at the earliest, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Reports earlier in Thompson's recovery suggested the team was targeting a Christmas Day return. While that won't exactly be the case, things are still shaping up for the sharpshooter to return in late December or early January. The current goal is for him to ramp up his conditioning over the next couple of weeks.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said Thompson (Achilles) will continue to take part in 5-on-5 scrimmaging until the team returns from its road trip following Tuesday's game in Phoenix, Malika Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

Kerr's update represents no change from Thompson's recent activity, but it's at least encouraging that the 31-year-old continues to avoid setbacks as he works to regain conditioning following a two-and-a-half-year layoff from NBA action. While Golden State hasn't placed a firm target date on Thompson's 2021-22 debut, recent reports have suggested that he's on pace to suit up for the Warriors shortly before Christmas Day. He'll likely be restricted to around 18-to-22-minute appearances once he's cleared, though he should have his playing time gradually pushed up when the injury is further in the rear-view mirror.

Thompson (Achilles) took part in a scrimmage Monday and went through a full practice Tuesday, Evan Webeck of the San Jose Mercury News reports.

While the Warriors have been careful to avoiding handing down an official return timetable, all indications are that Thompson continues to progress and is in the final stages of his recovery from a torn Achilles tendon. At this point, he's no longer facing any limitations, so it's likely a matter of building back strength in his lower-body and working on his conditioning. All along, the belief is that Thompson has been targeting a return around Christmas, but it's possible he could be back on the floor in the weeks leading up to the holiday. Thompson has not played in an NBA game since the 2019 Finals against Toronto, when he tore his ACL. He subsequently tore the Achilles tendon in November of 2020 while working out prior to the start of the 2020-21 campaign.

Thompson (Achilles) is cleared for full practice, per Shams Charania of The Athletic.

Thompson began participating in the Warriors' 5-on-5 scrimmages, which went well enough that he will be able to practice fully now. There is an improved chance the shooting guard returns a week before Christmas.

Head coach Steve Kerr mentioned after Tuesday's win over the Nets that Thompson (Achilles) has been cleared for contact and is playing 5-on-5, Kerith Burke of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Thompson has continued to ramp up his progression in his return from a torn Achilles and remains on track for a potential return on Christmas Day. The 31-year-old guard should continue to integrate himself more and more into practice as he builds up for a potential return in late December. More updates on his participation with the team should continue to follow in the coming weeks.

Thompson (Achilles) is close to playing 5-on-5 in practice and is 5-6 weeks away from making a return, Jordan Schultz of ESPN reports.

Thompson's recovery continues to be on schedule, as it was reported in August that the team was anticipating a return on Christmas Day. Thompson's last appearance was in the 2019 NBA Finals, where he tore his ACL. He then tore his Achilles while in recovery. Once the sharpshooter is cleared to play, he'll presumably be on a minutes limit that could last a while. The 11-1 Warriors lead the NBA in wins, so there's no rush Thompson back into a full workload before he's completely ready.

Thompson is expected to be cleared to return to full-contract practices within a month, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

The general expectation all along has been that Thompson would return to game action sometime around Christmas Day, but if he's cleared for full contact by mid-November, that could set him on course for a slightly earlier return. Of course, Thompson has missed the last two full seasons with a pair of serious leg injuries, so the Warriors won't rush him back until he's 100 percent ready. Either way, this update has to be viewed through an encouraging lens for fantasy managers who've drafted Thompson to temporarily stash in an IR slot.

Thompson (Achilles) will participate in "controlled drills" when training camp begins next week, David Aldridge of The Athletic reports.

As expected, Thompson will be with the team for training camp, but his return to game action is not expected to come until around Christmas Day. Thompson has made "good progress," per Aldridge, but he's yet to be cleared for full contact or any live action. The Warriors haven't said much about the situation, but the expectation is that Thompson will gradually increase his workload over the next three months.

Thompson (Achilles) is making solid progress in his recovery and is expected to participate in select drills during training camp.

While there aren't many details to this update from Golden State, it's encouraging to hear the sharpshooter hasn't suffered any setbacks and is still on pace to return sometime during the 2021-22 campaign. As the team notes, Thompson's return to full practices will be determined by how his body responds to individual drills.

Thompson is likely to make his return on Christmas Day against the Suns, Ali Thanawalla of NBC Sports reports.

Thompson won't be ready by the start of the season. The 31-year-old is coming off an Achilles injury that occurred last November. A 13-month recovery time isn't necessarily on the long side for such a serious injury. Plus, Thompson missed all of 2019-20 as well due to a torn ACL, so conditioning is expected to be an issue. While Thompson remained sidelined, more minutes should be available for Otto Porter, Jonathan Kuminga, Andre Iguodala and others.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said Monday that Thompson (Achilles) isn't full contact yet, but he is starting to run again, source reports.

Kerr said it is a "huge psychological boost" for Thompson to start running again, but he is still "aways away from actually playing basketball in a 5-on-5 setting". The Warriors will likely be extremely cautious bringing the 6-foot-6 shooting guard back to speed as he hasn't played in over two years, rehabbing from a torn ACL and now a ruptured Achilles.

Warriors executive Bob Myers implied Monday that Thompson (Achilles) may not be ready for the start of the 2021-22 season, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

While it's very possible Myers is simply tempering expectations for the star guard, if the season begins at its regular time (late October), Thompson will have had less than a full calendar year to recover from the torn Achilles that sidelined him for the entire 2020-21 campaign. Considering Thompson also missed all of 2019-20 while working back from a torn ACL, the Warriors will likely be extremely cautious in bringing him back up to speed. When asked about the possibility of Thompson playing on opening night, Myers responded, "i don't know if that will be realistic or not."

Thompson spoke with reporters Sunday, saying that his goal is to be ready for the start of the 2021-22 season, Kendra Andrews of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Thompson also said his Achilles tear in November happened on a jump shot that he practices daily. The 30-year-old continues to progress in his recovery, and has even taken to swimming in the San Francisco Bay as part of the recovery process Wes Goldberg of The San Jose Mercury News reports. Thompson is targeting opening day of next season for his return, which should mark around one year since he first suffered the injury.

Thompson (Achilles) recently shed his walking boot and remains on schedule in his recovery, Connor Letourneau of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Thompson continues to take steps in the right direction, though he's far from being cleared to make a return. Still, it's good to see the All-Star guard make steady progress after suffering another devastating injury.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said Monday that Thompson (Achilles) will be cleared to resume running in a pool next week, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Kerr also noted that "the worst" of Thompson's rehab process is behind him, with the 30-year-old now nearly two months removed from torn right Achilles' tendon he suffered in an offseason workout. While Kerr's comments about Thompson's post-surgery rehab are encouraging, the shooting guard still has a long road ahead of him in the recovery process, which will likely extend through training camp, if not the early portion of the 2021-22 season.

Thompson underwent surgery Wednesday to repair his torn Achilles, and he's expected to make a full recovery, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

About a week after suffering the injury, Thompson has undergone successful surgery. Thompson is unlikely to make his return to game action until December 2021, or potentially later. With the 30-year-old out of the picture again this season, there will be a lot of pressure on Andrew Wiggins and Kelly Oubre to play strongly on the wing.

Thompson has been diagnosed with a season-ending Achilles tear, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

This is a major blow for Thompson and the Warriors, as he was expected to make his return this season and help fuel and potential run for the NBA title. Now, we likely won't see Thompson until around December of 2021 or potentially later. With Thompson out of the picture for this upcoming season, more scoring responsibility will fall on Steph Curry and Andrew Wiggins, and getting James Wiseman ready for NBA action as quickly as possible will be a priority. Still, the Warriors' bench remains thin, and they'll have to continue to rely on the likes of Damion Lee, Jordan Poole and Juan Toscano-Anderson to play reserve minutes. Rookie Nico Mannion may also get thrown into the fire.

Thompson is feared to have sustained a significant Achilles injury, per Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports.

Thompson is set for an MRI on Thursday morning, but Haynes' report implies that the Warriors are preparing for the worst. If it is, in fact, a torn Achilles, Thompson would almost certainly miss the entire 2020-21 season. Thompson, of course, missed all of 2019-20 after suffering a torn ACL during the 2019 NBA Finals.

Thompson's injury, which he suffered during a workout Wednesday, is to his lower right leg, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Few details have emerged regarding Thompson's status, but he's set to undergo tests in the coming days to determine the severity of the injury. Shams Charania of The Athletic reports that Thompson was unable to place weight on his lower right leg while leaving the gym Wednesday. While it's too early to speculate whether or not Thompson will miss significant time, the relatively good news is that the injury which kept Thompson out of the entire 2019-20 season was to his left knee.

Thompson is believed to have suffered a lower leg injury during a workout Wednesday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Charania notes that Thompson is undergoing tests to determine the severity of the injury, but this is obviously a major concern for both the Warriors and Thompson, who missed all of last season while recovering from a torn ACL. The hope is that the injury is not overly serious, but more details should be available in the coming days, if not hours.

Thompson has officially been cleared to train without any restrictions, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

While the Warriors won't be among the 22 teams in Orlando next month, the expectation is that Thompson will be a full go for the team's eventual offseason minicamp. According to Slater's report, Thompson received full clearance "a couple weeks back" and has already been participating in "high-octane" workouts. While the sharpshooter is yet to scrimmage, he's gone through individual and group sessions involving running, jumping, dunking, 3-on-0, and 5-on-0 situations.

Coach Steve Kerr told Tim Kawakawi of The Athletic last week that he expects Thompson (knee) will be "ready to roll" when training camp begins ahead of the 2020-21 season. "Finally over the last few weeks he was able to start shooting with our guys, running through some drills and he was so happy to be out there," Kerr said of Thompson. "He's going to be so ready to play next year and so excited and the rehab is coming along really well, so I have no doubt that assuming everything starts in September and Oc

The Warriors officially ruled Thompson out for the season shortly after the All-Star break, but Kerr's comments reaffirm that the star shooting guard isn't a candidate to play in 2019-20 even with the NBA having suspended operations indefinitely. The 30-year-old will be 14 months removed from ACL surgery by the time September arrives, so he may enter the 2020-21 season without any restrictions for back-to-back sets.

Thompson (knee) will officially miss the remainder of the season while recovering from a torn left ACL, Marc Stein of The New York Times reports.

Thompson had recently been deemed unlikely to return this season by coach Steve Kerr and general manager Bob Myers, but the news is now official. The shooting guard has reportedly made good progress in his recovery, but with the Warriors holding the worst record in the league, there is no reason to rush him back in what has become an irredeemable season. Thompson should be ready in plenty of time for the start of the 2020-21 campaign and will likely be accompanied by Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins and potentially a top-five draft pick.

Coach Steve Kerr said Tuesday he doesn't "entertain any thoughts of [Thompson] playing this year," Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

General manager Bob Myers said earlier in February that the All-Star guard had minor chance of returning this season, but Kerr indicated Tuesday that Thompson is still "a long way" from have a definitive return timeline. The 30-year-old has participated in light shooting work at certain points throughout the season, but there hasn't been any clear-cut signs a return from the torn left ACL is coming in the near future.

Warriors general manager Bob Myers told ABC's Lisa Salters on Saturday that Thompson (knee) has "a chance" to return this season, Ali Thanawalla of NBC Sports Bay Area reports. "We're going to have an update [on Thompson] probably around All-Star break," Myers said during the broadcast of the Warriors' 125-120 loss to the Lakers. "But like Steph [Curry], if they're healthy and they're cleared, they'll play. But if they're not, obviously we're not going to play them."

Thompson has been able to do some light shooting work at various points during the season, but the prevailing sentiment is that he'll sit out the entire 2019-20 campaign to afford him optimal recovery time from the torn ACL he suffered in last year's NBA Finals. Myers is at least leaving the door open for Thompson to make a late-season return, but don't expect the 12-41 Warriors to push him to play unless the 30-year-old insists on doing so.

Thompson admitted Tuesday that while his rehab from a torn ACL in his left knee is "going great," he's uncertain if he'll be available to play at any point this season, Nick Friedell of ESPN.com reports. "I haven't stopped working since the third day after Game 6 of the 2019 Finals," Thompson said, in reference to the time he underwent surgery last June. "You might not see me a lot, but I'm working. I don't know what's going to come this season, I would love to get out there."

When Thompson last met with the media in September, he left the door open to return after the All-Star break, but coach Steve Kerr then suggested a month later that the 29-year-old was unlikely to suit up in 2019-20. In the months that have followed, Thompson has seemingly come around to Kerr's line of thinking, and the Warriors' placement at the bottom of the Western Conference standings probably doesn't help the shooting guard's chances of making it back before the regular season wraps in mid-April. The Warriors plan to re-evaluate Thompson around the All-Star break, but that's likely just to make sure his rehab is continuing to go smoothly rather than a means of identifying a potential target date for his return.

Coach Steve Kerr said Tuesday that Thompson (knee) is unlikely to play this season, Logan Murdock of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Thompson has already been ruled out through the All-Star break, and the circumstances surrounding his recovery and the success the Warriors would be having this year would have had to align perfectly for there to be a legitimate reason for him to return before season's end. That is still possible, and while unlikely, the Warriors have not gone ahead and officially ruled Thompson out for the entire season. The team will surely provide update's on Thompson's rehab throughout the season and have a better idea on what his timetable is much later in the year.

Thompson (knee) has been ruled out through at least the All-Star break, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

No surprise here, as Thompson continues to work back from a torn ACL suffered in June during the NBA Finals. The Warriors will by no means rush the All-Star guard back to game action, but hope remains that Thompson will be able to suit up prior to the end of the regular season. This latest update from the Warriors means Thompson will miss -- at a minimum -- the first 55 games of the year.
