NBA record for most points in a quarter (33) broken by Klay Thompson with 37

Thought this moment in NBA history deserved a thread. Literally perfection, 13 for 13. No other player has done better. The previous record for points in a quarter was 33 by George Gervin for the Spurs way back in 1978.

Heres all the shots:

He scored 52 points in the whole game but was benched for the whole fourth quarter since they were blowing out the other team so much by then.

Heck yeah and I'm happy that I was actually watching that game. Congratulations to him for being able to do something legends could not do.

I was watching it live. ****ing ridiculous, he was lighting the Kings up. It was a close game and then... blowout. I actually don't like Golden State at all, but huge respect for Klay here, he is one hell of a player.

Y'already know my 2k MyPlayer drops more in a quarter. Pfft.

In seriousness tho, good on him. He played a good hustle game out there, and deserves recognition for what he accomplished.
