NBA, Klay Thompson bombs from three: Warriors ok without Steph Curry

Boston, Dallas and Milwaukee also win on NBA night

If they call them the ‘Splash brothers,’ there must be a reason. With Steph Curry absent, halted by an injury that will keep him off the hardwood for an as-yet unspecified number of games, ‘twin’ Klay Thompson also takes charge of the triples he would have attempted, if present on the court, the all-time leader in three-point shots made in the league.

12/14 from the arc, with 42 points and not a single free throw attempted, is the resounding score of the son of art, who dragged the Golden State Warriors to victory against the Oklahoma City Thunder, swept 141-114. In the other games, nice wins for Boston, Cleveland and Los Angeles Clippers, who beat Detroit, Washington and Brooklyn, respectively. The Dallas Mavericks, on the other hand, succeeded in the feat of winning, on their eighth try, their first game of the season in the absence of Luka Doncic, who is still stuck in the pits.
