Set to play Thursday Thompson (ankle) has been cleared to play Thursday against the Warriors, Varun Shankar of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Thompson suffered a right ankle sprain during Monday's matchup with Golden State, but after receiving several days off between games, he'll be ready to run the floor Thursday.

Impact Thompson checked out at the 8:11 mark of the fourth quarter and headed to the locker room after grabbing at his right ankle.
