NBA superstar Klay Thompson has fired a game-high six three-pointers in a record-breaking debut for Dallas, playing a key role in his new team's season-opening 120-109 home win over San Antonio.
Star duo Luka Doncic (28 points, 10 rebounds, eight assists) and Kyrie Irving (15 points) shone as the defending Western Conference champion Mavericks pulled clear of their Texas rivals in the fourth period.
But it was Thompson, a four-time champion during his 13-year tenure with Golden State, who grabbed the headlines.
