The momentum was on Golden State’s side in the first half with Kevin Durant back in the lineup, but it was short-lived. Durant went down early in the second quarter with an Achilles injury and did not return. He will miss the rest of the series and likely the entirety of next season.
The Warriors made do without the former Finals MVP, who had 11 points in 12 minutes. “Splash Brothers” Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson scored a combined total of 57 points to lead Golden State to a 106-105 victory. That will need to be on repeat Thursday if the Warriors hope to survive and force a Game 7.
