The Golden State Warriors delivered a knockout punch to the Houston Rockets' postseason hopes with a dominant 133-110 victory on Thursday night . Klay Thompson lit up the Toyota Center with 7 three-pointers, while the Rockets’ third straight loss dropped them to 10th place in the Western Conference. With just six regular-season games left, Houston’s playoff dreams are fading fast.
Highlight Reel: Thompson’s sharpshooting (7/11 from downtown) marked his 50th career game with 7+ threes—second only to teammate Steph Curry in NBA history. The Warriors’ 17 three-pointers sealed the deal, though Curry uncharacteristically missed two of six attempts. Even Chris Paul got in on the action with two early threes!
What’s Next? The Warriors’ six-game win streak keeps them rolling toward the play-in tournament, while the Rockets face near-impossible odds to climb out of 10th. As one fan tweeted: \"Splash Bros are back, and the West is on notice.\"
