He impacted this game in other ways as well, recording five rebounds, four assists, two steals and a block in 29 minutes.

Thompson is currently playing his best basketball of the season as the surging Mavericks climb the Western Conference rankings, where they sit in fourth place at 17-9. If Dallas wants to compete for a top spot like they currently do, they will need Thompson to keep up his production and be a key part of this offensive attack.
