Many people reacted to his performance on social media.

@IvaAnd74: "How Klay Thompson hit 7 3s in one quarter and proceeded to drop 2 more points until the end of the game needs to be studied"

Noah Weber: "Klay Thompson's passing has been exceptional tonight.

He has been finding shooters on the perimeter and has made a few nice passes to cutters.

When he gets early touches and sees a few threes go down, everything opens up."
