The Warriors had two key milestones in the win,
their sixth in seven outings. Steve Kerr picked up his 500th
victory as a head coach and Thompson became the sixth player in
Warriors history to surpass 15,000 points.
Draymond Green scored a season-high 23 and Andrew Wiggins added
19 points for the Warriors. Collin Sexton logged 35 points and
nine assists while rookie Keyonte George contributed a
season-high 33 points with six assists as Utah dropped its
fourth game in a row.
Grizzlies 113, Bucks 110
Ziaire Williams and rookie GG Jackson scored 27 points apiece as
short-handed Memphis withstood a late rally by visiting
Milwaukee.
Memphis held on for the victory after Damian Lillard missed a
3-point attempt at the buzzer. The Grizzlies won their second
game in a row following a nine-game skid. Williams set a career
high with his point total, while Jackson matched his career
high.
Memphis had 10 players out due to injuries and only seven
Grizzlies scored. Giannis Antetokounmpo led Milwaukee with 35
points and 12 assists, and Lillard added 24 points.
Timberwolves 128, Trail Blazers 91
Anthony Edwards scored 34 points to finish a two-game scoring
spree against Portland as visiting Minnesota rolled to victory.
Edwards scored 41 points on Tuesday in Portland as Minnesota won
121-109 in the opener of the two-game set. On Thursday, he made
12 of 21 shots and had seven assists and six rebounds for the
Timberwolves, who won the final four contests of a five-game
road trip.
Jerami Grant scored 20 points and Scoot Henderson added 15
points for the Trail Blazers, who trailed by as many as 38 while
losing their sixth consecutive game.
