Grading Klay Thompson, Jordan Poole, Kevon Looney, and the rest of the Golden State Warriors in the team's 116-101 win over the Houston Rockets in an NBA ...

But damn if he isn’t an intriguing player with a gorgeous jump shot and a strong feel for the game. Jerome continues to impress, and the Warriors continue to show that they know what they’re doing with two-way contracts. Also thought his defense was good in this one. And it only reinforced my belief that I’ve been shouting to everyone who will listen for the last month or two: he’ll be a part of next year’s rotation. Great energy, a menage on the boards, and strong defense. After a cold night in LA on Thursday, DDV found his shooting stroke again on Friday, and the Warriors were a lot better for it. With Wiggins and Draymond Green out, Lamb did an excellent job playing larger than he is. But entering this game, Looney was fifth in the entire NBA in rebounding rate, trailing only Clint Capela, Steven Adams, Jonas Valančiūnas, and Rudy Gobert. The Dubs won the rebounding battle, and Looney was the biggest reason why. Looney was an absolute beast in this game, especially in the first quarter. He also had some tremendous defensive possessions — his athleticism can be a difference-maker in helping an older Warriors team hang tight with a young and athletic squad like Houston.
