The Houston Rockets bounced back in a major way Wednesday night, defeating the Golden State Warriors 109-94. After the Rockets struggled on offense in Game 1, Game 2 saw better play from the team's stars while providing the same defensive intensity on the other side of the floor.

The Golden State Warriors lost Game 2 to the Houston Rockets, evening up the series before both teams travel to The Bay for two games at Chase Center. In the first quarter, Jimmy Butler hit the ground hard and had to exit the game.
