Klay Thompson's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson will move into the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The veteran guard will make his return to the starting lineup on Monday. His return will shift Brandin Podziemski to the second unit, but he should play a large role off the bench. Thompson has finished with 25 points or more in two straight games. Fantasy managers might want to ride the hot hand on Monday and go with Thompson.

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson came off of the bench in the three-point victory over the Utah Jazz on Thursday and he led the team in scoring while only playing 28 minutes. The veteran sharpshooter finished with 35 points on 13-for-22 shooting and 7-for-13 from beyond the arc. He also chipped in six rebounds and two assists while registering zero turnovers. Thompson has been on a crazy rollercoaster ride of a season that has now turned him into a bench player instead of their starting shooting guard. If he can continue knocking down threes and providing sparks off of the bench, it shouldn't affect his fantasy value too much. His inconsistencies are something that can get frustrated though.

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson will play with the second unit during Thursday's game against the Utah Jazz. The Warriors have elected to have the struggling guard come off the bench for at least this game. Brandin Podziemski will get the starting nod in place of Thompson. Podziemski has played well recently and is worth looking at in standard leagues. Thompson should still be able to carry value off the bench, but his ceiling will be limited.

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (illness) was able to participate in practice on Thursday. The veteran guard missed Tuesday's game due to an illness but appears ready to get back on the court. Thompson is expected to return after a one-game absence for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The return of Thompson should shift Brandin Podziemski back to the bench. Podziemski still has some streaming appeal off the bench but is more of a deep league option.

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers.
