Golden State Warriors defeated the Milwaukee Bucks as Klay Thompson and Jordan Poole had 30+ points each

Klay Thompson registered his best performance of this season to help the Golden State Warriors beat the Milwaukee Bucks.

He scored 38 points which included 8 three-pointers as the world got to see a glimpse of the Klay that we knew about before his injury.

This was a big win for the Golden State Warriors as they defeated the defending champions without Draymond Green who is subjected to return for their next game.

Thompson recently had been struggling to find his form following his return from the injury. He was out from the game for more than 2 years and such a return was expected from him.

He was receiving criticism from everyone for his performances as everybody said that he was trying a bit too hard which is costing the team.

Klay Thompson answered back all his critics as he dropped a vintage Klay-Performance which guided his team to a big win against one of the best teams in the league.

With Draymond Green about to return from his injury, the Warriors are looking very scary and have a legitimate shot of winning the title once again.

Warriors get 38 points from Klay Thompson and 30 from Jordan Poole in their first ever start together. Third straight win. Beat the Clippers, Nuggets and now Bucks. Draymond Green is expected back Monday. Three home games this upcoming week: Wizards, Celtics, Spurs.

Jordan Poole continues to shine as once again he dropped 30 points

Jordan Poole has elevated his game to the next level this season and has been a key player for the Golden State Warriors.

He has been putting up top-notch performances consistently and with the attention of other teams’ defense on Klay and Steph. Poole has been thriving with the open shots that he is getting.

He continued his outstanding run of form as he scored 30 points in the win against a very tough Milwaukee Bucks team which just shows the amount of talent this player has.

Jordan Poole last 6 games:

30 PTS | 5 AST | 5 3PT
21 PTS | 7 AST | 4 3PT
20 PTS | 4 AST | 4 3PT
32 PTS | 7 AST | 8 3PT
23 PTS | 4 AST | 4 3PT
23 PTS | 2 AST | 3 3PT

The Warriors have a very good young core in the making with the likes of Jordan Poole, Jonathan Kuminga, Moses Moody, and James Wiseman who will be taking care of the team once the era of Steph, Klay, and Dray ends.

Kuminga gone be very good for a long time

Steph Curry – 2009
Klay Thompson – 2011
Draymond Green – 2012

Jordan Poole – 2019
James Wiseman – 2020
Jonathan Kuminga – 2021
Moses Moody – 2021

Truly appreciate how well the Warriors handled their drafts & settle for talents development.

Built not bought. Future is bright.
