The Warriors of Golden State and the Clippers of Los Angeles met in a Thursday night matchup.

The final score was 121–113, and the Warriors were defeated.

Klay Thompson, a five-time NBA All-Star, had a fantastic game despite the loss. In 32 minutes of play, he scored 30 points, grabbed one rebound, dished out five assists, and stole the ball. Thompson shot 9/15 from the field and 8/12 from beyond the arc.

While playing, Thompson became just the 167th player in NBA history to reach 14,500 points for his career.
