Check Rockets vs. Warriors game 5 prediction here. With their backs against the wall, the Houston Rockets return to the Toyota Center on Wednesday night hoping to stave off elimination in Game 5 against the Golden State Warriors. After dropping Game 4 in San Francisco 104-93, the Rockets now trail 3-1 in the best-of-seven series. Golden State, led by a scorching 36-point performance from Stephen Curry, has reclaimed control and now eyes a trip to the Western Conference Semifinals with one more win.
Houston, a strong home team all season (25-8), enters as a 4-point favorite despite the series deficit, leaning on their rebounding edge and top-tier defense to slow down a Warriors squad that’s heating up at the right time. Golden State, meanwhile, has won six of the last nine head-to-head matchups and carries a battle-tested playoff core with momentum on their side.
With both teams ranking top 10 in scoring and rebounding, fans can expect a gritty, possession-heavy showdown. Can Alperen Sengun and Jalen Green rally the Rockets, or will Curry and company slam the door?
