Dislocated finger doesn't break Klay Thompson's rhythm in Warriors' win
OAKLAND -- Klay Thompson got dressed, found a to-go box for his postgame meal and sauntered out of the Warriors locker room.
Warriors PR caught up with Thompson a few feet down the tunnel, requesting an about face back to the interview room. The All-Star guard wasn’t feeling it, but didn’t bristle.
He simply wasn’t compelled to elaborate on his role in Tuesday’s 115-108 victory over the Utah Jazz at Oracle Arena.
Thompson finished the game with 22 points on 9-of-14 shooting, including 3-of-5 from deep. He smothered Jazz star Donovan Mitchell when asked.
Ho-hum.
He did most of that damage after dislocating his left ring finger midway through the first quarter.
No big deal.
