The Golden State Warriors (66 - 7) defeated the Philadelphia 76ers (9 - 65) 117 - 105 on Sunday. While backcourt mate Stephen Curry rightfully gets the majority of press, Klay Thompson has made sure that he's not a forgetten man by any stretch, averaging 37 points over the last three contests. Sunday saw the talented two - guard explode for 40 points for a second straight game, while also hauling in a pair of rebounds and recording a block. His standout performance was part of a remarkable night from the field for the Warriors, who managed a 53 percent success rate from the field, and a 42 percent figure from beyond the arc. The Sixers were led by Carl Landry, who garnered a third straight start in place of Nerlens Noel (knee). Landry managed 22 points, eight rebounds, three assists and a steal. Ish Smith followed with a 20 - point, 10 - assist double - double that also featured three rebounds and three steals. Isaiah Canaan managed 15 points and two assists. Robert Covington paced the reserves with a second straight double - double off the bench, totaling 16 points and 11 rebounds. Elton Brand was also productive off the bench, amassing 10 points, three rebounds, two assists and three blocks. Philadelphia remains in last place in the Eastern Conference's Atlantic Division. They're back home on Tuesday to face the Charlotte Hornets. Stephen Curry followed Thompson's stellar effort with 20 points, eight assists, three rebounds and four steals.
