Game Preview

The Rockets scored diversely, with all eight players who appeared on the court scoring between 8 and 17 points. However, Houston’s most important scorer, Jalen Green, had just 9 buckets, six boards, and five assists. The Warriors’ defense guarded him well, bullying him around.

Alperen Sengun had 15 points and 11 boards, and the Rockets once again dominated the glass with 51 rebounds to 45. This didn’t help them to win in the end.

Steph Curry was on fire, scoring 36 points. He also had 9 assists and 7 rebounds, completely covering Jimmy Butler’s absence. However, he had a huge help coming off the bench.
