Tee time after All-Star break helps bring Splash Brothers back

Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson found rest and rejuvenation on golf courses in Palm Springs (Curry) and Cabo San Lucas (Thompson) during their abbreviated All-Star break.

The respite did more than sharpen their swings — it also helped them start shooting like the Splash Brothers again.

Curry and Thompson headed into the break on a sour note, shooting poorly and watching Portland’s Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum thoroughly outplay them Feb. 14. The Warriors and their acclaimed backcourt bounced back Thursday night, resuming the season with a 134-127 victory over the Clippers.

Curry scored 44 points on 14-for-19 shooting (including 8-for-11 on threes) and Thompson added 19 while making 8-for-14 from the field.
