Curry started the game red-hot, shooting 7 out of 11 and delivering 21 points in the first quarter alone

The two-time NBA MVP added 10 more to close the first half and then torched Portland with 31 additional points in the second half.

Curry finished the game with 62 points, five rebounds, and four assists. He shot 18-for-31 from the field and 8-for-16  from the three-point arc while making 18 out of his 19 free throw attempts.

“It was just a brilliant performance,” said Warriors head coach Steve Kerr after the game. “It’s just a privilege to coach him. It really is. … What a performance tonight.”

Several other Warriors’ players stepped up to help Curry, with Andrew Wiggins scoring 21 and Kelly Oubre Jr. adding 17. Rookie James Wiseman also had an encouraging performance, recording his first double-double as a pro with 12 points and 11 rebounds.

Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum led the way for Trail Blazers, scoring 32 points and 28 points, respectively.

According to multiple reports, Lin will sign a deal with Exhibit 10 deal with Golden State Warriors in the coming days. The 32-year-old Lin, however, isn’t expected to be part of the team’s 15-men roster and should play for their G League affiliate Santa Cruz Warriors.

Playing in G League gives Lin a better chance of making an NBA roster. He can either get signed by another team or promoted to NBA by Warriors on a two-way contract.

Jeremy Lin spent his rookie season with the Warriors, playing 29 games with the organization during the 2010/11 NBA season. He averaged less than 10 minutes on the floor, contributing 2.6 points per game.

After this struggling outing in Golden State, Lin joined New York Knicks during the 2011/12 campaign. In New York, he had a productive 12-game stretch that later became known as “Linsanity” and established him as a quality starter in the league.

Lin later played with Houston Rockets, LA Lakers, Charlotte Hornets, and Atlanta Hawks, among other teams. His last NBA stint was an NBA Title run with Toronto Raptors in 2019. 

Lin spent the 2019/20 season with Beijing Ducks, playing in 39 games and averaging 22.3 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 5.6 assists per game. He helped the Ducks to playoffs semis, where they lost to defending champions Guangdong Southern Tigers.

Thompson, who sat out all of 2019/20 due to an ACL injury, got hurt again during a workout on Wednesday. Reportedly, the 30-year-old All-Star felt pain in his calf during one play and immediately knew something was wrong.

Golden State initially hoped that Thompson’s injury wasn’t as severe as it seemed. Unfortunately, MRI tests on Thursday morning showed the Achilles tendon tear.

The news represents a tough blow for the Warriors, who hoped to get back to contention next season. They finished with the worst record in NBA in 2019/20, playing without Thompson as well as two other All-Stars in Stephen Curry and Draymond Green, who were out for the better part of the season.

The Warriors’ best hope now is that someone else can step up and try to make up for the loss of Klay Thompson. The list of potential candidates includes talented but inconsistent Andrew Wiggins and this year’s No.2 pick James Wiseman.

During his recent appearance on The Jump, ESPN’s Nick Friedell reported that the Warriors identified Phoenix Suns’ wing Kelly Oubre Jr. as one of their preferred targets this offseason. According to Friedell, Golden State believes that Oubre has the making of a complementary piece for its stars Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green.

Oubre had a great campaign last season, posting career-highs all across the board, including 18.7 points and 6.4 rebounds. He also established himself as a capable defender, something that Golden State highly appreciates.

It is unclear how much it would take for Warriors to land Kelly Oubre or whether Phoenix is even interested in selling.

Oubre is currently on an affordable contract that pays him $14.4 million a year, which is a bargain considering his output. However, the 24-year-old forward is heading towards free agency after the 2020/21 season and is most likely to ask for a significant pay rise. If Suns don’t intend to give him one, maybe dealing with Golden State isn’t such a bad idea.

There is no doubt that the Warriors have the draft assets to make the deal happen while also holding a $17.2 million trade exception from last season’s Andre Iguodala trade. It only remains to be seen how high they are willing to go in order to get their man.
