Klay Thompson made history on January 23, 2015!
January 2015, Klay Thompson he would like to know his first selection for the All-Star game. So the 12th-ranked West Player of the Week guard will pull out all the stops this January 23rd against the woeful Kings to convince voters with this insane 37-point performance in one quarter, including 18 straight and flawless shooting: 13/9 from 3-3!
All in all positions, and sometimes instinctively. Even he couldn’t believe it during the timeout…
“I really don’t know what happened. It was completely crazy” he confided after the match. “I actually took a lot of bad shots, but I decided to keep going until I missed one.”
Sacramento led before the “Splash Brother” heat stroke…
The most incredible thing is that until then the match was balanced and Sacramento played eye to eye with the Warriors thanks to 28 points and 11 rebounds of Demarcus Cousins. With only a five-point deficit at the break after exploding at the beginning of the match (22-2), the Kings even at the beginning of the third quarter gained an advantage (58-56) thanks to a 7-0 run. All without Rudy Gay, sent off in the first half.
And then Klay Thompson hit a three-pointer, then two… and Golden State was back in front (66-64). A moment of grace followed: Klay Thompson, like a giant, gave the Kings 11-4 for the break (77-68). Sacramento takes a timeout to stop the bleeding. But even worse because the guard will score his team the next 18 points!
Oracle Arena stands. His teammates surround him. Sacramento is not an actor, but an observer of a historical feat. In ten minutes the score increased to… 97-73!
The last quarter is a formality. Klay Thompson broke his personal best (52 points), which would explode less than two years later in another crazy night: 60 points in 29 minutes, in 11 dribbles…
