The Warriors attempted to mount a comeback in the second half, but head coach Steve Kerr quickly pulled the plug on that one after seeing his team go down 29 points at the midway point of the third quarter.

With only 13 seconds on the clock and the Houston Rockets trailing by one point, Ime Udoka, Alperen Sengun and the Rockets made the decision to go at Draymond Green. With the game on the line, Sengun drove one-on-one against Green before throwing up a contest shot that clanked off the rim and into the hands of Jimmy Butler on a game-sealing rebound.
