Rudy Gobert's presence in defense was felt as he contributed key rebounds that limited second-chance opportunities for Golden State.

Fourth Quarter

Despite trailing entering the fourth quarter, Golden State mounted a spirited comeback attempt fueled by their bench players who collectively scored over half of their team's total points throughout the game (53).
