Klay Thompson snaps out of shooting slump as Warriors beat Blazers

PORTLAND, Ore. — Warriors guard Klay Thompson dealt with one of the most pronounced shooting slumps of his career by pretending it didn't exist. Asked repeatedly during the week about his struggles from beyond the arc, Thompson got uncharacteristically defiant, asserting, "I don't think it's a shooting slump. I really don't." After helping propel Golden State to a 115-105 win over the Trail Blazers on Saturday night at Moda Center, Thompson can stop fielding questions about his shooting. In 34 minutes, Thompson scored a team-high 32 points on 12-for-21 shooting (4-for-5 from three-point range). His team-high seven fourth-quarter points helped put the exclamation point on the Warriors' first victory in three games.
