Klay Thompson: Andrew Wiggins Showed Why He's No. 1 Pick with Defense on Luka Doncic

The Golden State Warriors hounded Luka Doncic in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals, limiting him to 20 points on 6-of-18 shooting in a 112-87 blowout of the Dallas Mavericks.

Andrew Wiggins served as Doncic's primary defender for most of the game, earning praise from his teammates afterward.

"He was moving them puppies tonight," Klay Thompson told reporters. "That's why he was the No. 1 pick. You can't teach that athleticism. You can't teach that length. You can't teach his timing. I'm just happy the world is getting to see who he really is, and that's an incredible wing player, and he will be like this for the next 10 years.
