Klay Thompson
Odds: +450
He might be the less spoken about of Golden State’s Splash Brothers, but make no mistake, Klay Thompson will be determined to get the upper hand over his backcourt mate, and is certainly capable of doing so.
Thompson is a lights out shooter in his own right, and it’s worth noting that his was recently described as the prettier stroke out of the Splash Brothers by President Barack Obama.
Across the course of his career, the California native has made 41.9 percent of his three balls, and is even slightly better than that this season, averaging 42 percent. Of late, he’s been a little bit cooler, with Thompson making 37.8 percent of his triples over his last five outings.
Having only lost in the final to Curry last year, Thompson has shown himself to be more than capable of working his way through the rounds. Now all he needs is some of the magic that he displayed in his 9-9 three-point shooting, 37 point quarter against the Sacramento Kings last season.
