Exactly a year later, Thompson was terrific this time at Sacramento

SACRAMENTO – The last time Klay Thompson had a play-in game at Golden 1 Center, he was a member of the Golden State Warriors. That

was a year ago to the day. And it was a game Thompson would rather forget.

But as the calendar turned 365 days later, Thompson put that dreadful night in his rear-view mirror and quickly turned into one of the shining stars on Wednesday night as the Dallas Mavericks ended Sacramento’s season with a 120-106 triumph over the Kings in a Western Conference play-in game.

Last year in the play-in game for the Warriors, Thompson was a dismal 0-of-10 from the field, including 0-for-6 from three-point range on a scoreless night for one of the greatest shooters in NBA history.
