While Klay Thompson might be more popular for being a walking meme these days, he can still deliver on the court for the Dallas Mavericks when the occasion calls for it.

The four-time NBA champion and five-time NBA All-Star may be down to the last few years of his career, but the one thing that has never left him is his all-time great shooting stroke. Though his per game numbers have trended lower in recent years, he remains well above average and can still turn back the clock from time to time.

These past two weeks have been one of those vintage stretches for Thompson who is averaging 18.0 points and 4.7 threes on 49.1% three-point shooting across Dallas’ last six games. This run was punctuated by a 23-point performance–all of which he scored in the first half–in only 20 minutes in the Mavericks’ most recent victory over the Utah Jazz.

The night was even more meaningful as his six three-pointers during the win pushed him past Damian Lillard four fourth place in the NBA’s all-time made three-pointers list. He also became the 109th player in league history to reach the 17,000-point mark for his career.

Thompson can still clearly play at a high level, especially in a limited role, and this run of his comes at quite an opportune time. With less than three weeks remaining before the February trade deadline, an aspiring contender may try to pry him away from this rebuilding Dallas team that has no legitimate playoff aspirations this year.

There has been some chatter that Thompson’s former team, the Golden State Warriors, are interested in bringing him home in their attempt to maximize the last few years of Stephen Curry’s career. If Thompson winds up getting bought out, the Los Angeles Lakers have emerged as a strong candidate as well to acquire his services.

Regardless of what happens next, Thompson has nothing left to prove in the NBA. He has already earned his place among the greatest shooters of all-time. Nonetheless, he still has a chance to build further on his legacy, especially if he can find his way back to a contender. His shooting–and the gravity that comes with it–will allow him to carve out a meaningful role in the league for as long as his body can handle it.

Klay Thompson deserves his flowers—but his time in the NBA is far from finished.
