Klay Thompson gets kneed in head, leaves game, tries to return but is bleeding from his ear (video)

Thompson left the court area for a bit and then tried to check in a few minutes later. One problem: He was bleeding from the ear:

Thompson left the court area again, got stitches and returned to the bench. However, the team doctors did not let him re-enter the game due to him starting to show concussion-like symptoms.
