In a nail-biting finish, the Golden State Warriors edged the Houston Rockets 109-106, taking a commanding 3-1 series lead. Draymond Green's defensive prowess was pivotal, blocking a crucial shot from Alperen Sengun, allowing Jimmy Butler to seal the game with two free throws. Brandin Podziemski emerged as a standout, contributing 26 points, while Butler returned from injury to deliver key plays, including a flawless performance at the free-throw line. Despite strong efforts from Sengun and Fred VanVleet, the Rockets now face elimination as they prepare for Game 5 back in Houston.
