Houston Rockets vs. Golden State Warriors: Stream, lineups, injury reports, broadcast (4/5)

The Houston Rockets will make the trip to California to face off with the Golden State Warriors in the Bay Area's Chase Center, the Dubs' home arena, this Sunday (April 5) evening. At that game, the Rockets are going to be looking to keep their current win streak moving forward as the end of the 2025-26 NBA regular season draws close to its end.

On the other side of the court, the Warriors are going to be looking to snap an extended losing streak -- and they might have some help in the injury department to make that happen. We expect a Rockets win, but should said player be able to contribute at a normal level, this one might be closer than it looks.

Records, standing, and streaks

At present, the Rox have a 48-29 record and a five-game win streak, which has them fifth in the Western Conference standings.
