The Golden State Warriors had a tall task ahead of them on Wednesday night when they visited Houston to take on the Rockets. That challenge became even more difficult when star Stephen Curry exited the game in the first quarter with a right abdominal injury and was ruled out of the game.
The Warriors ultimately dropped the game, 115-98. Kevin Durant led all Rockets scorers with 20 points as all five starters scored in double-figures. Yaxel Lendeborg finished with a game-high 25 points with 10 rebounds and two steals. Draymond Green finished the game with seven points, five rebounds, and seven assists in 26 minutes of play, and possibly an ejection of two fans in the fourth quarter.
Late in the game, a fan on the baseline closest to the Rockets bench yelled some things in the direction of Green as Houston was preparing to shoot free throws. Draymond Green could be heard responding, “Shut up,” before speaking with the referee and pointing out where the two fans were.
According to the ESPN broadcast, the two fans were removed from the basketball game with about 4:28 remaining.
