Klay Thompson received seven stitches after a J.R. Smith elbow to the face in the third quarter, but the Golden State Warriors shooting guard returned to Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers in the fourth.

Thompson suffered a cut to his forehead on the play, which saw him head to the locker room with a bloodied face.

Luckily for the Warriors, the elbow resulted in nothing more than that cut.
