Appreciating Klay Thompson filling in the superstar shoes

Save for the fiasco against the Los Angeles Lakers out of the All-Star Break, this is probably the best result the Golden State Warriors could’ve hoped for with both Steph Curry and Andrew Wiggins sidelined.

They’ve gone 5-1 overall after the ASB, including a 5-0 homestand — four of which were come-from-behind wins where they were down by double digits. Over this five-game stretch within the confines of Chase Center, the Warriors have had the best defense (100.6 defensive rating) and have outscored opponents by 15 points per 100 possessions — second in that stretch behind the red-hot Milwaukee Bucks.
