Warriors' Klay Thompson: Returns to Game 3

Thompson (thigh) returned to Wednesday night's Game 3 against Cleveland after he left briefly to receive treatment. He finished with 10 points (4-13 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 1-3 FT) in 31 minutes in a 120-90 loss.

Analysis:

Thompson was hit in the thigh late in the first quarter by the Cavaliers' Timofey Mozgov, who was called for an illegal screen. Upon his return, Thompson scored 10 points in the second quarter to help cut the Cleveland lead, which had been as high as 20 points in the first half, to 51-43 by halftime. We suspect Thompson will be good to go Friday when the two teams meet in Cleveland for Game 4.
