SAN FRANCISCO — Klay Thompson poured in a season-high 54 points and knocked down 10 3s, but it was Kevon Looney who made the putback basket as time expired to seal the Warriors’ thrilling 143-141 double-overtime win over the Atlanta Hawks Monday night.
The Hawks rallied from a 17-point halftime deficit and led for most of the fourth. A blocked Jordan Poole 3-point attempt in the final seconds of regulation landed in the hands of Donte DiVincenzo, who drained a 3 to tie the game with a second left and send it into overtime.
In overtime, Thompson hit a 3 with 17.8 seconds remaining to give the Warriors a two-point advantage. But an Anthony Lamb foul sent Trae Young to the line for a game-tying pair of free throws to force double-overtime.
