SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Klay Thompson scored 27 points and hit the go-ahead 3-pointer that helped the Golden State Warriors wrap up a perfect homestand by beating the New Orleans Pelicans 108-99. The Warriors went 5-0 on the homestand despite missing injured star Stephen Curry to strengthen their playoff positioning in the ultra-tight Western Conference. Jonathan Kuminga added 19 points off the bench to help the Warriors overcome a 17-point deficit in the first half. CJ McCollum scored 25 points and Brandon Ingram added 17 for New Orleans. The Pelicans have lost five of six games.
