Golden State Warriors avenge Mavericks defeat with convincing win (AFP)

Klay Thompson outshone teammate Steph Curry as the Golden State Warriors avenged last month's loss to the Dallas Mavericks with an emphatic 127-107 victory. Thompson on Wednesday poured on 45 points and five rebounds in a superb display as the Warriors romped home against one of only four teams to defeat them this season. The Mavericks had beaten a Curry-less Warriors line-up in Dallas last month, winning 114-91 in a rare off night for the reigning NBA Champions.
