What’s the buzz on Twitter?
Mark Haynes @markhaynesnbaAndrew Wiggins talked about the team’s chemistry now that Klay Thompson is back.
“Klay is a hell of a player, great player. He’s one of the best shooters of all time. Soon as he’s on the court, he’s going to make the team better. That’s what he does.” – 2:04 PM Shams Charania @ShamsCharania
Stephen Curry at @TheAthletic: “I’ll get tagged on something on social media, like, ‘You ruined the game.’… People are going to talk sh–. Hate and love and criticism and celebration – everything. That’s why I stay so even keel.”

Steph Curry isn’t listed on the injury report tomorrow against the Pistons. He will return to open the Warriors’ homestand. Gary Payton II is questionable. Missed the previous two games with back spasms. – 8:46 PM Ky Carlin @Ky_Carlin

After averaging 20 minutes per game to start his return, Klay Thompson could see an increase in minutes on Sunday against the Timberwolves, per Steve Kerr. warriorswire.usatoday.com/2022/01/16/war… – 6:00 PM Mike Prada @MikePradaNBA
That was a pleasant surprise, Wiz! Bryant at the 5 gives the offense so much room to breathe. It’s what they’ve badly missed. Now they can actually swing the ball to the second side.
On the other end, haven’t seen a team defend the Seth Curry side DHO game better all season. – 4:24 PM Rich Hoffman @rich_hofmann
Sixers get drilled in Washington, 117-98. They are 25-18.
Perhaps tired playing 3 in 4, no energy. Perimeter defense without Thybulle/Green was porous. Harris/Curry really struggled, which has been a theme for Harris.
Embiid did get his 30. Sixers next 11 of 14 are at home. – 4:23 PM Keith Pompey @PompeyOnSixers
#Sixers 3d-quarter shooting: Embiid 5-6, Curry 1-2, Korkmaz 0-4, Brown 0-2. #Sixers trail 84-71 – 3:43 PM Ky Carlin @Ky_Carlin
We’re late in the 3Q and Seth Curry hasn’t attempted a 3 yet. That just can’t happen. #Sixers – 3:40 PM Ky Carlin @Ky_Carlin
Seth Curry with a couple of buckets and Philly is within 61-55 at the half despite some poor moments. Joel Embiid has 16 to lead the way. #Sixers – 3:08 PM Matt Williams @StatsWilliams
This season, the Nuggets are +247 when Nikola Jokic is on the court and -204 when he is off the floor this season.
That +451-point swing is the 2nd-largest in the NBA among players to play 125 minutes, trailing only Stephen Curry (+463). – 1:55 PM Ky Carlin @Ky_Carlin

Klay Thompson on how ready he is to extend his playing time:
“You can’t trust what I say, because I can say I can play 40 minutes.” pic.twitter.com/orhnYrEtU8 – 11:32 PM Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Klay Thompson on Jonathan Kuminga: “Jon is an incredible athlete. His ability to play at the rim is incredible. I loved his aggressiveness tonight. It shows with 10 free throws. He’s going to be a huge part of this team for a long time.” – 11:24 PM Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Jonathan Kuminga brought in a box of Chess & Checkers to his presser: “I don’t play neither of those games. I just gotta do my rookie duty and carry it for Klay.” pic.twitter.com/Ca5PfoKmzM – 11:20 PM Mark Haynes @markhaynesnba
Klay Thompson on how he feels he’s playing:
“I think I’m playing great. I’m getting great looks. I had some really good looks tonight… So, although I’m not shooting the ball as well as I want, I’m going to keep shooting because that’s what I’m best at.” – 11:15 PM Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater

Warriors just had that late half Klay Thompson 3 wiped off the board. Referees ruled, on review, he stepped out of bounds. So they’re down 56-50 not 56-53. – 9:21 PM Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Jordan Poole is serving as the starting point guard tonight. Had a few nice finds in the first half. This mid air lefty curl pass to Klay Thompson in the corner was the best. pic.twitter.com/zplfKNWcmE – 9:14 PM Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
At the half in MIN: Warriors trail T-Wolves 56-53
-Klay 11, Kuminga 11, Poole 9
-Wiggins 2 (0-3 FG)
-Defense OK
-26-23 rebounding edge (Loon 9)
-10 turnovers (Poole, Beli 3 each)
-7/24 from deep, 11/18 inside the arc
-Attacking more now, after firing bricks from beyond – 9:14 PM Chris Biderman @TheWarriorsWire
