The Golden State Warriors return home to the Chase Center in San Francisco to battle the Houston Rockets in Game 3 of the first-round, best-of-seven NBA playoff series on Saturday night. Tipoff is at 5:30 p.m. PT.
The Rockets evened the series at 1-1 on Wednesday night by beating the Warriors in Houston 109-95. Warriors star Jimmy Butler was injured in the loss, falling on his backside after leaping for a rebound. His status for Saturday night’s game is unclear.
In Butler’s place, Jonathan Kuminga returned to the court for the Warriors after being benched for the prior three games, scoring 11 points in 26 minutes of playing time.
Now the series moves to Chase Center in San Francisco, where the Warriors will host Game 3 in front of Dub Nation, rather than the Houston crowd that jeered Warriors big man Draymond Green on Wednesday night.
