In the NBA playoffs, Stephen Curry led the Golden State Warriors to a 104-93 victory against the Houston Rockets, scoring a game-high 36 points. This victory came while the Warriors were without their star Jimmy Butler, who was sidelined due to a glute contusion. Despite a slow start, the Warriors managed to rally and win the game. Gary Payton II and Buddy Hield also contributed significantly, helping Golden State take a 2-1 series lead in the first round of the playoffs. They aim to extend their lead with another victory at home next.
Curry stated, "This series, no game is going to be pretty. You just kinda have to grind it out. We had 22 points halfway through the [second quarter]."
Curry noted, "Everybody just stepped up and played for Jimmy. Hopefully, he's back soon."
Payton made significant contributions, stating, "I just wanted to find my rhythm and play my game. It felt great to help the team like that."
The Warriors rallied back after a slow start, with Curry emphasizing, "You just stick with it and make the right plays."
