Warriors Lose KD, Outlast Rockets In Game Five

The Warriors overcame a calf injury to Kevin Durant to stop the Rockets 104-99 in Game Five from Oakland. Durant left with 2:05 to play in the third and didn't return. The Warriors led by three when Durant left and briefly lost the lead, but held on to win at home. Klay Thompson scored 27 points and Stephen Curry poured in 25 as the Golden State leads the series 3-2. James Harden put up 31 points to lead Houston, which failed to take advantage of Durant's absence. Eric Gordon added 19 as the Rockets try to fight off elimination at Game Six in Houston on Friday.
