The Golden State Warriors got themselves back in the win column with a victory over the LA Clippers on Thursday (Nov. 30.) A big fourth quarter from Klay Thompson helped seal the deal. However, the overall team performance was most encouraging, with Steve Kerr‘s team looking like the Warriors we’ve come to know and love.
Beating the Clippers isn’t an easy feat. Ty Lue’s team is littered with high-level talent. As such, there is hope the Warriors have turned a corner, especially as their play style against the Sacramento Kings earlier in the week also impressed. The Warriors will play another game against the Clippers on Saturday (Dec. 2), providing them with a solid litmus test of their overall improvements.
Before we begin looking ahead, it’s worth taking a closer look at the players who shone for Golden State in their latest win. Here are the Warriors top three statistical performers from Thursday’s game.
