With starting center Andrew Bogut out, all the Golden State Warriors needed was a solid effort from Jermaine O'Neal. The 18-year veteran was quiet offensively, with just 2 points, but was focused on defense sticking to Dwight Howard.

He also managed 10 rebounds and 2 blocks including an important game-saving block on the Rockets' Chandler Parsons that allowed Golden State to maintain their lead. The Warriors came away with a 102-99 overtime victory against the Rockets halting Houston's 8-game winning streak.
