In the final quarter, Stephen Curry’s three threes gave the Warriors a 99: 108, 5:40 lead to an end, but the Rockets did not give up. With a basket by Jason Tate and a three by Kevin Porter Jr., they narrowed the gap to just four.

Stephen Curry’s 40 points led Golden State to a 108: 122 victory over the Rockets.
