The Golden State Warriors 🔥 continued their hot streak, blasting past the Houston Rockets 133-110 at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas, on Thursday. With this victory, the Warriors extended their winning streak to six games! 🙌
Unfortunately for Rockets fans, this loss marks their third straight defeat, leaving them four games behind the Warriors and sitting in 10th place in the Western Conference. With only six games left in the regular season, Houston's hopes for a spot in the play-in tournament are fading away. 😔
The Warriors were on fire from beyond the arc, nailing 17 out of 35 three-point attempts! 🔥 While not every player was in rhythm—Stephen Curry missed two of his six shots from downtown, and veteran point guard Chris Paul made both of his 3-pointers in the first quarter—the team effort was enough to secure the win.
Klay Thompson was the star of the show, splashing in seven 3-pointers out of 11 attempts! 🎯 This game marked the 50th time in his career he's hit at least seven shots from downtown, placing him second in NBA history behind only his teammate, the one and only Steph Curry. 🏀👏
Even rookie Lester Quinones joined the party, going a perfect 3-for-3 from behind the arc during garbage time. Talk about making the most of your minutes! 💪
The Warriors are heating up at just the right time as they head towards the playoffs, while the Rockets will have to regroup and look ahead to next season. Stay tuned for more exciting NBA action! 🏀✨
