Thompson delivered 15 points (7-14 FG, 1-2 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 37 minutes in the Cavaliers' 101-95 win over the Lakers on Sunday.
Thompson's scoring production had seen a brief downturn the prior two games, as he'd mustered a pair of six-point efforts. Sunday's tally was therefore a return to the caliber of offensive effort he'd been providing prior to a 10-game absence due to a foot injury, and to that which he'd generated during three of his first four games since returning as well. The veteran center's work on the boards is also better than ever, as he's now averaging a career-best 11.2 rebounds following his third double-double of January on Sunday.
