On Saturday night, the Golden State Warriors are hosting the Milwaukee Bucks at the Chase Center in San Francisco.           

For the game, they will have one of their best players in the starting lineup, as Klay Thompson has been upgraded to available.    

Underdog NBA: "Klay Thompson (knee) will start Saturday."

The five-time NBA All-Star comes into the night with averages of 22.0 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.5 assists per contest in 55 games. 

He is also shooting 43.2% from the field and 40.7% from the three-point range.

The 33-year-old was the 11th pick in the 2011 NBA Draft and has spent his entire career with the Warriors. 

In four out of the last eight seasons, they have won the NBA Championship (they've been to the NBA Finals six times in that span). 

Right now, the Warriors are 34-33 in 67 games, which has them tied with the Dallas Mavericks for the sixth seed (the final guaranteed playoff spot) in the Western Conference.

They are 5-5 in their last ten games and in the middle of a three-game losing streak. 

That said, the Warriors are an impressive 27-7 in the 34 games they have hosted at the Chase Center. 

Meanwhile, the Bucks are the best team in the NBA, with a 48-18 record in 66 games. 

They are 9-1 in their last ten games and on a three-game winning streak. 

On the road, the Bucks are an outstanding 20-12 in the 32 games they have played away from Wisconsin.
