Tue Apr 4 202321:50Klay Thompson Sitting Out Tuesday
Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (back) will not play Tuesday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Thompson was a late addition to Tuesday's injury report with a back issue and will be sidelined for at least one game. Jordan Poole should see increased usage while Anthony Lamb could also see a boost. Stephen Curry should take as many shots as he can against the young Thunder squad and could be in for a big night.

Tue Mar 14 202308:56Klay Thompson Hits The Suns With 38 Points
Golden State Warriors guard/forward Klay Thompson made a sizzling start to Monday's big matchup against Phoenix and ended up as the leading scorer in the contest, putting up 38 points in a 123-112 win. He had a whopping 33 points in the first half with eight made attempts from deep. The Suns did a much better job against Klay after the break and he didn't add to the damage from deep anymore. The veteran star finished with 14-for-23 overall shooting and recorded four rebounds and five assists with one steal and one block. Thompson is shooting over 50 percent from the field this month and his good efficiency allows him to rack up points in a hurry, which was the case on Monday.

Sat Feb 25 202307:56Klay Thompson Drops 12 Three-Point Bombs On Houston
Golden State Warriors guard/forward Klay Thompson had an outstanding game with a game-high 42 points and 12 made three-pointers in Friday's 116-101 win over the Rockets. This was a complete three-point barrage from the veteran, as Thompson didn't make a single two-point attempt and finished 12-for-19 from the field with a 6-for-6 record at the foul line. It's his second 42-point effort of the month, and Thompson also had seven rebounds and one assist in the game. The 33-year-old has only recently received the all-clear to start playing back-to-backs and Friday was a pretty decent debut for him in that regard. Thompson's availability on back-to-back nights is a boost for his fantasy value, especially with Stephen Curry (shoulder) still unavailable.

Wed Feb 22 202319:03Klay Thompson Expected To Play Back-To-Backs Moving Forward
Golden State Warriors guard/forward Klay Thompson is expected to play back-to-back sets of games moving forward, per head coach Steve Kerr. Thompson has had a couple major injuries in his career and has been subjected to some rest days when the Warriors play a back-to-back set of games. However, it looks like rest days are behind him, and Thompson should see a lot fewer of those the rest of the regular season. There is still some chance Kerr gives Thompson a rest day if some soreness occurs, but this is a good sign for Thompson's availability moving forward.

Tue Feb 7 202309:20Klay Thompson Has 12 Triples, Torches OKC For 42 Points
Golden State Warriors guard/forward Klay Thompson looked like he came straight out of a video game on Monday against Oklahoma City, hitting 12-for-16 from downtown en route to 42 points in a 141-114 win. He was 15-for-22 overall from the field and completed his work with three rebounds and one assist. Thompson now has eight games with 10 or more 3-pointers, which is the second-best mark in league history behind Stephen Curry (22). We could get see a few familiar efforts from Thompson in the near future, with Curry having been ruled out for multiple weeks with a leg injury.

Sat Feb 4 202314:51Klay Thompson Questionable On Saturday Evening
Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (illness) is questionable ahead of Saturday's matchup against the visiting Mavericks. Thompson and Draymond Green (calf) missed Thursday's loss to the Denver Nuggets, allowing Kevon Looney and Jonathan Kuminga to enter the starting lineup. Kuminga finished that one with 17 points and seven rebounds in 32 minutes and should be classified as a must-start if Thompson and Green aren't available on Saturday night. As far as Looney is concerned, he'll grab plenty of rebounds, although his upside on the scoring end is limited.

Fri Jan 20 202316:38Andrew Wiggins, Draymond Green, Klay Thompson Resting
Golden State Warriors starters Andrew Wiggins, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson will all be receiving a rest day on Friday during the second half of their back-to-back against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The trio plus Stephen Curry will all be resting on the sidelines so there are big openings for streaming options in this contest. Jordan Poole is likely already taken in many leagues, so Donte DiVincenzo, Anthony Lamb, Ty Jerome, and Moses Moody are all going to see more minutes and are likely available on the waiver wire in more leagues.

Tue Jan 3 202308:19Klay Thompson Drops 54 Points On Atlanta
Golden State Warriors guard/forward Klay Thompson produced the second-best scoring night of his career on Monday, helping the team to a 143-141 overtime victory against Atlanta with a 54-point effort. He shot lights out all night, finishing 10-for-21 from downtown and 21-for-39 overall from the field. The veteran sniper also collected eight rebounds, three assists and one block. Following his horrible injury issues, Thompson has been a very inconsistent performer, but he has now strung together a very impressive four-game stretch, averaging 34.5 points. Next up, he will find himself facing off against the second-worst defense in the league, so Thompson is in a perfect spot to continue his scoring tear on Wednesday versus Detroit.

Tue Dec 20 202217:06Klay Thompson Will Play Against Knicks
Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (knee) was originally listed as probable for this Tuesday night matchup. Now, the team makes it official by listing him as available against the New York Knicks. With two of their starters sidelined and a few reserves battling some injuries, Thompson will bring some much-needed firepower to the lineup. Playing alongside Jordan Poole will allow him to find plenty of open opportunities.

Mon Dec 19 202223:52Klay Thompson Probable Against The Knicks
Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (knee) is expected to play against the Knicks on Tuesday. The veteran is listed on the injury report with a sore left knee. However, this is nothing new, so barring a significant setback, he should be out there. Thompson has struggled in the two games that Stephen Curry (shoulder) has missed so far, scoring 29 points while shooting 10-for-31 from the field and 6-for-17 from deep during that span. Jordan Poole has the best chance to lead things offensively with Andrew Wiggins (adductor) out again for this one. Yet, Thompson is due for a solid performance at some point, so fantasy managers should never count him out.

Fri Dec 16 202215:36Klay Thompson Back On Injury Report For Friday
Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (knee) was removed from the injury report on Thursday because he was originally supposed to receive a rest day. Now he's back on the report with apparent knee soreness. Thompson is officially tagged as questionable right now, but it sounds like it could just be precautionary. He'll likely get up until game time to test his knee out to see if he can suit up. The 32-year-old has only missed six games this season, and most of them seem to be for rest days. If he stays on the sidelines, look for Donte DiVincenzo to stay in the starting lineup and for Moses Moody to get some more minutes off of the bench.

Thu Dec 15 202222:07Klay Thompson Available For Friday
Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (rest) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The veteran guard sat out on Wednesday, which was the second game of a back-to-back set. The Warriors continue to be cautious with their superstar guard, but should eventually let him play in back-to-back sets. Thompson won't lack scoring opportunities with Stephen Curry and Andrew Wiggins both sidelined. He'll be a great fantasy option for Friday's slate.

Wed Dec 14 202216:47Klay Thompson Will Miss Wednesday’s Contest
Golden State Warriors shooting guard Klay Thompson (rest) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Pacers. The Warriors have been consistent in resting Thompson on the second leg of back-to-backs this season as he works his way back to full speed following nearly two-and-a-half seasons on the sidelines. When on the floor, Thompson has been more aggressive from long range than ever, hoisting a career-high 10 triples per game, knocking down an average of 3.8, which ranks him tied for fourth in the league. With Andrew Wiggins (groin) also out, Jordan Poole will see his DFS upside skyrocket, while Donte DiVincenzo and Moses Moody could garner additional run. Fantasy managers can anticipate Thompson being good to go Friday vs. Philly.

Sun Dec 11 202207:45Klay Thompson Leads All Scorers In Finals Rematch
Golden State Warriors shooting guard Klay Thompson went off for a game-high 34 points in Saturday's 123-107 win over Boston, shooting 14-for-26 from the field with a 4-for-11 from downtown. The Splash Brothers really turned up for the Finals rematch, with Stephen Curry adding 32 points with 6-for-11 three-point shooting. Thompson completed his line with five rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block while turning over the ball just once in 36 minutes. This is the second time this season that Thompson has been able to get past the 30-point mark. He's been averaging 18.9 points for the year, but the veteran sniper has boosted his production to 27.5 points this month. It's been a big improvement and fantasy managers must be very happy.

Mon Nov 21 202207:42Klay Thompson Turns Back The Clock Sunday
Golden State Warriors shooting guard Klay Thompson played like his old self on Sunday versus Houston, hitting 10 treys and leading all scorers with 41 points in a 127-120 win. Thompson last scored more points in a regular-season game in January 2019. The veteran sniper shot 14-for-23 overall from the field and capped off his night with four rebounds, three assists and two steals. The Splash Brothers were in full swing here as Stephen Curry went for 33 points. The defending champions are back in action Monday against New Orleans and Thompson has yet to play both games in a back-to-back set, so he'll likely head to the sidelines to cool off a bit. But the five-time All-Star should be brimming with confidence right now and will look to terrorize the Clippers and Utah later in the week.

Wed Nov 16 202221:54Klay Thompson Returns On Wednesday
Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (rest) returns for the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The veteran sharpshooter is back in the starting five after sitting out on Monday due to rest purposes. Thompson has been off to a slow start, but fantasy managers shouldn't give up on him. Jordan Poole should move back to the bench and won't have as much streaming appeal with the second unit. Fantasy managers can go ahead and get Thompson back in their lineups on Wednesday.

Mon Nov 14 202217:33Klay Thompson To Rest On Monday
Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (rest) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so the Warriors have decided to give Thompson a rest day. Jordan Poole should see increased playing time and usage with Thompson sitting this one out. Poole hasn't played up to the level many expected, but he should continue to be rostered in most fantasy formats. DFS players should consider Poole as an option with extended playing time.

Fri Nov 4 202214:56Klay Thompson Won't Suit Up Friday
Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (Achilles) has officially been listed as out along with his backcourt mate Stephen Curry. In what seems like a rest day, he'll be out for injury management on his right Achilles tendon. Jordan Poole and Moses Moody will most likely get most of the minutes, but we could even see Ty Jerome and Ryan Rollins. The former would be the two to target as the biggest beneficiaries in the backcourt.

Fri Nov 4 202209:55Klay Thompson Drains Seven Threes On Thursday
Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson came out firing on all cylinders against the Orlando Magic on Thursday night. The 32-year-old ended the game with 27 points, four rebounds, three assists, and one steal while going 10-for-24 from the floor and 7-for-15 from beyond the arc. At this point in his career, it feels normal whenever he hits more than five threes in a game. His consistency since his major injuries isn't what it once was, but he still should be rostered in all fantasy formats. There are not many players better for threes in a category fantasy league.

Sun Oct 30 202216:33Klay Thompson Sitting On Sunday
Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (Achilles) won't play on Sunday against the Pistons. The Dubs played on Saturday night in the loss to the Hornets, so the veteran will get the night off. Jordan Poole (ankle) is questionable because of a sprained right ankle, making it possible he also sits this one out. If that's the case, Moses Moody and Jonathan Kuminga may be more involved, although both remain risky fantasy options.
