After the Warriors could do no wrong in the first half, the young and scrappy Houston Rockets erased a 31-point deficit and crawled their way back to force overtime. With no Stephen Curry and Draymond Green unavailable for overtime after fouling out, the Warriors' depth got the job done to avoid disaster. Jonathan Kuminga (23 points, 7-12 FG, game-high +18) was the overtime hero, while Brandin Podziemski (12 points, 5-11 FG), and Buddy Hield (27 points, 6 3PM) had key contributions as well. The Warriors will face the Washington Wizards on Monday and look to start the season 6-1.
