SAN FRANCISCO — Klay Thompson erupted for 42 points Friday night to help the shorthanded Golden State Warriors torch the lowly Houston Rockets 116-101.
No Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins, Andre Iguodala and Gary Payton II? No problem.
After going a lousy 14-for-49 from 3-point land the night before in a frustrating loss to the Los Angeles Lakers, the Warriors lit it up from outside Friday at Chase Center, going 26-for-54 (48.1%) from deep.
