The Warriors recently won a crucial game against the Orlando Magic, while the Rockets secured an impressive overtime victory against the Oklahoma City Thunder, extending their winning streak to 10 games.
Although Eason is out for the season due to a leg injury, he has been a key part of the Rockets’ young core. The Warriors have a history of proving teams wrong when called out, and they currently hold a slight edge over the Rockets in the race for the No. 10 seed.
The two teams will face off next week in a game that could determine their playoff fate. The Rockets face a tough schedule ahead, while the Warriors have a more favorable path. Eason’s challenge adds an interesting storyline to the final weeks of the NBA regular season.
The Golden State Warriors lost Draymond Green early in the game due to ejection, but they still managed to secure a win. Steph Curry played a crucial role, hitting a driving hook shot and a clutch three-pointer to seal the victory.
Andrew Wiggins led the Warriors in scoring with 23 points, while Curry had 17 points and 10 assists and Klay Thompson contributed 15 points. The Houston Rockets, on the other hand, celebrated a thrilling overtime win against the OKC Thunder, extending their winning streak to 10 games.
Tari Eason, a Rockets player, took to social media, taunting the Warriors with a reference to the film “The Warriors.” Despite the win, Eason did not play in the game as he is out for the season due to injury. The Warriors also faced controversy with Green’s ejection.
The Rockets and Warriors will soon face off in a critical game that could impact the Western Conference standings. Jalen Green was the standout player for the Rockets, scoring 37 points and securing the victory. Houston remains one game behind Golden State in the standings.
