The Rockets are currently trailing 3-1 in this series, as they have lost back-to-back games. In the most recent game, Houston lost 109-106.

In order to keep their season alive tonight, the Rockets will need to improve their performance at the free throw line. The team shot less than 62% from the line last game, which hurt the Houston offense down the stretch.

Notably, Alperen Sengun is coming off a 31-point performance for Houston. With this in mind, he will be a key player to watch this evening.

In the last game, the Warriors had five players score double-digit points: Quinten Post, Jimmy Butler III, Stephen Curry, Buddy Hield, and Brandin Podziemski.

Podziemski scored a team-high 26 points and shot 6-11 from three-point range, so he will try to perform similarly tonight.
