Due to injuries, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson haven’t played a game together since the 2019 NBA Finals. Thompson has been ruled out for the season with a knee injury. However, the other Splash Brother was in the midst of making his long-awaited return to the basketball court.

After missing 58 games, Curry has only recorded one contest in his return from a broken left hand. With the NBA season on hold until further notice due to the coronavirus pandemic, Curry has yet to suit up for game two of his return.

With no games on the radar for the foreseeable future, Warriors Wire is looking back into Golden State’s history — highlighting top performances from the past. Yesterday, we looked at Jason Richardson’s 40 point effort against the Sacramento Kings in 2005.

On March 18, we hit rewind to 2016 when Curry and Thompson were both in the backcourt healthy.

March 18, 2016

After winning 73 regular-season games, the 2015-16 season will always be defined by Golden State’s game seven NBA Finals loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Still, the regular season provided a bevy of memorable moments for the Golden State Warriors.

On March 18, the Dubs converted road win number 30 against Dirk Nowitzki in Dallas.

Curry recorded 31 points on 12-of-26 shooting with six makes coming from beyond the arc. Thompson matched his Most Valuable Player teammate with 39 points on 14-of-22 from the floor with 10 triples.

Nowitzki scored 24 points while former Warrior David Lee added 16 points and 16 rebounds off the bench for the Mavericks. Though, it was no match for the red-hot Warriors in their 130-112 win as they improved to 62-6 on the season.
