Klay Thompson is set to return to Golden State on Tuesday night, facing the Warriors for the first time since joining the Dallas Mavericks in July.
Thompson’s former team is set to honor him on “Captain Klay Night,” which will surely be an emotional experience. After spending 13 seasons in the organization and winning four NBA titles with the Warriors, Thompson will look to make his mark on this memorable matchup.
Averaging 13.8 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists in his first 10 games with Dallas, Thompson remains a critical floor spacing threat in the Mavericks’ offense next to Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving.
Thompson’s focus remains on winning with the Mavs. He likened this matchup to being “another regular-season game in November” but is looking forward to seeing his former teammates, coaches and everyone in the Chase Center who made it home, including the arena workers and fans.
Below are some of the best Klay Thompson prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for tonight’s game at Chase Center:
Best Klay Thompson Prop Bets
Points 15.5 (Over -110 / Under -120): Thompson’s points line is set at 15.5. He’s averaged just under this total so far, but his motivation in his return to Chase Center could push him to exceed his typical scoring. The Over and Under offer solid options depending on how you anticipate Thompson will handle facing his former team.
Rebounds 3.5 (Over +105 / Under -135): Averaging 3.7 rebounds this season, Thompson’s rebounding line (3.5) puts him within range of reaching the Over. With +105 odds, those expecting a high-energy night might find value in Thompson’s rebounding prop, though the Under is a safer choice.
Threes 2.5 (Over -162 / Under +126): Thompson’s three-point shooting remains the foundation of his game, and he’s hitting 2.9 threes per game this season. The Over at -162 has the potential for a profitable night from beyond the arc. Still, the Under at +126 offers an alternative if you think he doesn’t sink enough shots.
Points + Rebounds 18.5 (Over -125 / Under -105): A combined line of 18.5 points and rebounds gives Thompson bettors a balanced option. Averaging 17.5 in combined points and rebounds, Thompson is within reach of this total. With the significance of tonight’s game, the Over is an enticing choice for those expecting him to put up a solid all-around performance.
Game Leader Points (+2000): For those who see a breakout night for Thompson, a bet on him leading the game in points at +2000 is a high-risk, high-reward option. While he hasn’t led Dallas in scoring often this season, the added emotion of the game could lead to an inspired performance.
