Watch: Klay Thompson sets Chase Center into frenzy with buzzer-beating 3-pointer vs. Pistons

After four games on the road, the Golden State Warriors returned to San Francisco’s Chase Center to open a seven-game homestand with a contest against the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday.

Klay Thompson quickly gave the home crowd something to cheer about.

In his second game at Chase Center since making his long-awaited return to the court, Thompson tallied 17 points on 5-of-9 shooting from the field with three triples in the first half alone.

To end his explosive first-half performance, Thompson buried a buzzer-beating 3-pointer to send the Warriors into halftime with a 28-point advantage over the Pistons. After Thompson got his jumper to fall before the horn, the Golden State bench and the crowd at Chase Center erupted with cheers.

Via @NBCSWarriors on Twitter:

The five-time All-Star sharpshooter finished the contest with a game-high 21 points on 6-of-13 shooting from the field as the Warriors cruised to a much-needed victory over the Pistons, 102-86.

Thompson and the Warriors will be back on the floor at Chase Center on Thursday against the Indiana Pacers at 7 p.m. PT.
