The Golden State Warriors are back in San Francisco for Game 6 of their first-round playoff series against the Houston Rockets.
The Warriors currently hold a 3-2 advantage in the series after dropping Game 5 in Houston.

Moses Moody led the way for the Warriors with 25 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals on 50/43/100 shooting splits. This was due to coach Kerr pulling the starter out early in the game as the game became out of reach, and the sights were set on Game 6 back in the Chase Center.
The Warriors are coming into the game with two players listed on the injury report: Stephen Curry and Gary Payton II.
Jimmy Butler is AVAILABLE.
Steph Curry is listed as AVAILABLE but he is still dealing with an injury to his right thumb and will require the use of a splint.
Gary Payton is listed as available with a left thumb injury that also requires a splint.
