The Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets are going head-to-head in the first round of the 2025 NBA playoffs. It's an intriguing matchup featuring proven playoff veterans for Golden State and a talented young core for Houston.

G olden State did what they needed to do when the series headed to San Francisco, taking the 2-1 series lead over the Houston Rockets in large part due to Steph Curry’s 36-point

While this was far from a vintage performance from the 11-time All-Star, Curry was still able to make history yet again on Monday night. The NBA announced after the game that the Warriors superstar has climbed the all-time leaderboard for most assists in the postseason.
