Thompson totaled 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and three steals over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 112-104 victory over the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson fell one rebound short of a double-double, while also adding at least three defensive stats for the fifth time in the past six games. Although his scoring continues to be an issue, Thompson has been a relatively consistent source of steals and blocks, while also providing out-of-position rebounds on a nightly basis. For those not seeking points in fantasy basketball, he certainly warrants a roster spot.
