Klay Thompson has become an x - factor for this Warriors team, as while his up - and - down start to the regular season has n't really had a huge impact on the team's overall performance, when he's hitting his shots, the team is nearly unbeatable. As of late, Thompson's shot has really come together, as he has now, after Monday's 25 - point performance, led the team in scoring in two of their last three games. They've also won those games by a combined 53 points. The Pacers, on the other hand, are going in a much different direction, as they are now 7 - 8 on the season. It's been due in large part to their lack of bench production, as they currently rank in the bottom 10 of the NBA. The return of Rodney Stuckey, however, may be able to turn that around. The 24 minutes he played Monday night was his highest of the season and it went along with a season - high 21 points. If Stuckey can stay healthy, the Pacers may have a legitimate sixth man that can lead to successful bench production.
