So far this season, Thompson has averaged 14.2 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game. He's shooting 39.1% from three-point range, averaging three made threes per game for the Mavericks.
Thompson is widely considered one of the best three-point shooters in NBA history, having recently played alongside Stephen Curry on the Warriors, where the two were called the "Splash Bros."
Thompson and the Mavericks are looking to make the final playoff push, sitting at No. 10 in the Western Conference standings with a 36-38 record.
Dallas is just one game behind the Sacramento Kings for the No. 9 slot, but a major push will be necessary for the Mavericks to have a chance to compete in the postseason.
