Thompson is one of the best shooters of all-time and is currently 13th on the all-time list for most three-pointers made.

For his career, he is shooting 41.5% from the three-point range on 7.2 attempts per contest.

He finished his night against the Bucks, putting up 14 points, one rebound and two assists in 27 minutes of playing time.

Last season, the Warriors won their fourth NBA Championship in the previous eight seasons.

However, they have been an up-and-down team to start the 2022-23 season.

After starting 3-7 in their first ten games, the Warriors have played much better as of late, but they are only the tenth seed in the Western Conference.

Their biggest struggles have come on the road, where they are now 2-12 in 14 games.

On Wednesday night, the Warriors will play the second night of a back-to-back when they face off with the Indiana Pacers in Indianapolis.
