Thompson was 19-for-25 in the final round, 18-for-25 in the first, and adding them together put him at 74 percent on the night.

The other player in the championship round, Phoenix’s Devin Booker, had 16 points. “I think I honestly can win the Skills Challenge. The NBA was just inviting whoever was already coming to the All-Star break, to be honest with you”, Redick says.
“Never in a million years would we have thought that I’d be able to bring my family back as an all-star to Toronto”.
Middleton finished with only 13 points in the first-round and was eliminated early after he couldn’t top Klay Thompson (22), James Harden (20) and J.J.
One prominent hoop fan felt Thompson had a good shot. Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry, front left, takes schoolchildren through a skills drill at a Jr.
He answered one shooting question very clearly yesterday. A year ago, he scored 37 points in one quarter against Sacramento.
According to Klay Thompson, the Warriors have Michael Jordan’s blessing. If he’s missing, he keeps shooting. But Thompson, too, is on pace to set a career-high for 3-pointers made.
“In Charlotte, yeah, if they want me to come back, I probably will”, Gordon said. In those games, Thompson averaged 26.3 points – five points above his average. His older brother Mychel Thompson played in the National Basketball Association for the Cleveland Cavaliers and his younger brother Trayce Thompson plays baseball in the MLB for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
But it wasn’t enough. He did two dunks that were just insane with the mascots, jumping over them. It was a true money performance.
“At the end of the day, you’ve got to make shots”, Curry said.
Both Curry and teammate Klay Thompson passed through the first round with relative ease. So this is a rare occurrence that he loses.
“He was cool to talk to, he gave me a lot of props, told me to tell my pops hi and my uncle”, Thompson said.
“I love the people and I love the city, so much love this weekend”, Curry said. Defending champion Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors was there to defend his title in the field of eight of the sharpest shooters in the league.
If that’s the case, it’s bad news for the rest of the Association.
He beat Curry. He tied his record for points in a single round.

“Wasn’t safe at all”, Curry said. “I grew up always watching these things”.
