Thompson will draw his first start of the season Wednesday versus the Nuggets, Diamond Leung of the Bay Area News Group reports.

Thompson will benefit from Draymond Green's absence Wednesday and draw his first start of the year. Green is out simply to rest, and could potentially miss Thursday's game as well. Thompson has not gotten much run this year, averaging 2.2 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 0.7 assists in 6 minutes per game.
