Klay Thompson has fire coming out of his fingers, scores 37 in first half

Klay Thompson is doing it again. The Warriors are blowing out the Memphis Grizzlies in the first half and Thompson is on fire, finishing the second quarter with 37 points on 14-of-17 shooting from the field. Thompson had 26 points in the second quarter, which would probably seem a lot more impressive if we didn’t see him go off for 37 in one quarter against the Sacramento Kings earlier this season.
Some of these shots are just ridiculous:
That is a whole lot of green.
