It was an impressive victory considering the fact that Luka Doncic and Klay Thompson missed the game due to injuries. Dereck Lively II also exited early due to an illness. Doncic has already been ruled out for Wednesday’s game against the New York Knicks due to his right wrist injury,

It’s been 10 days since Klay Thompson’s emotional homecoming to the Bay Area for the epic showdown with the Golden State Warriors. But that one rousing effort against his former team has masked what’s otherwise been a tough beginning in Dallas for Thompson.

The Warriors have a special “Salute Captain Klay” ceremony planned for before tipoff to pay tribute to Thompson’s contributions to the franchise over 11 years. The team said: “Fans are encouraged to arrive early, by land or by sea, for a special pregame salute to the franchise legend.”
