About StatMamba: “Klay Thompson this season:

19.7 PPG
5.0 3 p.m
45.5% 3PT

His 15 three-pointers are the most in the first three franchise games in NBA history.”

Thompson is no longer the borderline superstar he once was in the prime of his career.

Nevertheless, he and his new team do everything that is necessary.

The Mavs already have superstars Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic, so Thompson doesn't need to be anything more than an efficient third option.

Following the Jazz, the Mavs will now host the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday evening at the Target Center.

Thompson is in his 14th NBA season (12th season).

His career averages are 19.6 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.3 assists per contest while shooting 45.3% from the field and 41.3% from three-point range.
