On Wednesday night, the Golden State Warriors are playing the Houston Rockets (in Texas).

Steph Curry had 11 points, two rebounds and six assists while shooting 3/11 from the field and 3/9 from the three-point range in his first 19 minutes of playing time.

He also made NBA history by moving ahead of Basketball Hall of Famer Bob Cousy (937) for 18th on the all-time playoff assists list.

Following Cousy, the next player for Curry to pass will be Jerry West (970).

The Warriors have a 3-1 lead in the series, so they can eliminate the Rockets with a victory on Wednesday.

However, they have struggled in a big way through the first two and a half quarters.

Via Anthony Slater of The Athletic: "Warriors are down 27 at the half in Houston. Rockets just put up 76 points on 69/60/85 shooting splits. Warriors had 10 turnovers and only six made 3s. Seemed like Steve Kerr already managing rotation for likely G6. Draymond Green only 12 first half minutes."
