CHICAGO – The drought is over. Klay Thompson has become a Splash Brother again.
After laboring through a shooting slump through the Warriors’ first seven regular-season games, Thompson set an NBA record for most 3-pointers in a game as he led the Warriors to a 149-124 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Monday.
Thompson finished with 52 points, while shooting 18-of-29 from the field and 14-of-24 from 3-point range. He exited the game with 4:05 left in the third quarter to treat a cut on his forehead that prompted him to wear a yellow headband in the third quarter.
