Thompson went for a game-high 41 points (14-30 FG, 11-18 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, a steal and a block over 40 minutes during Saturday's 108-101 defeat of the Thunder in Game 6 of the Western Conference finals.
He was magnificent throughout the night, but particularly when it counted most, as Thompson drained 19 of his 41 points in the crucial fourth quarter. It was the All-Star guard's first time eclipsing the 40-point mark in the postseason, and the 11 three-pointers set an NBA postseason record. The 26-year-old is now averaging 25.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.3 blocks over 33.3 minutes in the series, and will undoubtedly play a pivotal role in Game 7 on Monday.
