What should fans expect for the Golden State Warriors vs. Houston Rockets matchup?
Despite the different circumstances for both teams, this matchup could be one of the more interesting ones this season. So, what should fans expect from this ball game? For starters, this could be the big game that sees the Rockets finally pull off their first season of the win.
Heading into this regular season meeting, the Houston Rockets have lost their first two games (San Antonio Spurs and Orlando Magic) of the season. The Warriors will be a good challenge for this young team and a proper foundational win if they pull it off.
The Golden State Warriors, on the other hand, can go on their second-straight victory of the season following their recent 122-114 win against the Sacramento Kings. The team can go on another incredible two-way display for limiting the Rockets' offensive talent while also putting up an electric scoring display.
Additionally, Amen Thompson's first matchup against Warriors star Stephen Curry is something NBA fans should watch out for. The 2024 No. 4 pick is due for his first outing in his rookie season. If he does put up an electric performance against Curry, then it would make one impressive rookie outing for Thompson.
