The Phoenix Suns have been a consistent thorn in the side of the Golden State Warriors this season before Monday night’s victory. A statement win at home over a team they are styling with for postseason positioning could be the catalyst to light a fire under the squad heading down the home stretch.
The firepower was clearly on the Warriors’ side with the first-half eruption of Klay Thompson. Thompson scored 33 of his 38 points in the first two quarters of play in the Warriors’ 123-112 victory over the rival Suns. The hot start reminded the entire league of the explosive ability of the multiple-time NBA All-Star.
