The Warriors lead this best-of-seven series, 3-2, with Game 6 taking place on Friday, April 28 (8:00 p.m. ET, ESPN).

Stephen Curry is now the 5th player in NBA history (6th instance) with 3 straight 30+ point games at age 35 or older, joining:
Michael Jordan (05/10/1998 – 05/23/1998): 5 Games
Michael Jordan (04/24/1998 – 05/03/1998): 4 Games
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (04/24/1983 – 05/01/1983): 4 Games
LeBron James (08/22/2020 – 08/29/2020): 3 Games
Reggie Miller (04/24/2001 – 05/02/2001): 3 Games

De’Aaron Fox (150 points, 37 assists, 31 rebounds) is the first player in NBA history to total 150 points+, 30+ assists, and 30+ rebounds in their first 5 career Playoff games.

Tonight marks the first time that Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green all scored 20 or more points in a Playoff game since May 16, 2016 vs the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Kevon Looney is the first Warrior with multiple 20+ rebound games in a single Playoff series since Nate Thurmond (1972, Western Conference Semifinals vs. The Bucks)

Tonight’s win in Sacramento gives the Warriors 28 straight Playoff series with a road win. The only other team that has a streak of 20 series or more with a road win is the Miami Heat, who had 23 straight series from 2011-20.

  1. i want the warriors to win because, warriors vs lakers or memphis will be 🔥🔥🔥

  2. The game isn't over yet but so many seats already vacant. Come on Kings fans, at least give your team support until the buzzer.

  3. If the Warriors had to win a road game now , it had to be this one
    Draymond Green’s production if he didn’t score 21 , the Warriors would’ve been in shambles for real

  4. Fox's injurred finger really affected his shot. He missed 16 shots tonight. He could've easily made 4 more shots if his finger was okay and the Kings would've won this game.

  5. Are you kidding me? If gsw vs lakers in 2nd round, gsw will have homecourt advantage. When did a 6th seed had a homecourt playoff gain?

  6. They definitely needed this win, especially since it's a road game that would boost their momentum. Now the Kings went from dominating 2-0 to facing elimination on two games. Let's see if Game 6 Klay comes out

  7. These final uncut minutes have bee some of the best videos I have seen from the NBA channel, but I would suggest not putting the final score in the thumbnail. If someone has not watched the game, it kind of ruins any suspense initially offered when the title is clearly indicating a "WILD ENDING."

  8. Andrew Wiggins clutch time shot man when there were only 2 possession left. One of the best under pressure and he just came back from injury 2 weeks back. man is playing so high standard basketball after joining Warriors. You have my respect Wiggi.

    The experience of championship came handy as always. Kings are really good team. Warriors in 6.

  9. Love wiggins doing that clutch mid range shot. This is wiggins that I want to see. ❤

  10. Fox taking too many tough shots like… you gotta make plays instead of shooting right away

  11. Im not a big kings fan as i used to, they’re still my hometowm team and its still great to see thos team compete like this against the defending champs. It be great if we can force a game 7 and have a chance to win the series as i don’t really like the warriors
