A win is not enough for Klay Thompson

Before making his return, Klay made it clear he had only one target for this season. Thompson wants to win it all with the Warriors this campaign. Hence, after the win against the Warriors, the sharpshooter admitted that they did not have a great shooting game while speaking about his return back to the court.

He said: “The fans are the best in the league and the ovation. the pregame and to come out and make my first shot, I mean we did not even shoot well tonight. It shows you how good we are defensively. I mean the fans are everything. They inspired me for the last two years and I thought about them everyday.”

Klay marked his return by picking off from where he left off. He was the second-highest scorer on the team with 17 points. Stephen Curry showed out with 28 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists to his name. Off the bench, Jordan Poole had some big-time buckets as he added 14 points to the tally. Despite missing out on Draymond Green, the Warriors were great on the defensive end and restricted the Cavalier to just 82 points.

However, Klay sure had a point when it came to the Warriors having a bad shooting night. Despite being a great shooting team, the Warriors managed to shoot just 40% from the floor and 23% from three. While it was a rare bad night, it is important for the Bay to focus on their recent struggles.
