It was a team effort by Houston Rockets as they defeated OKC in a thriller game with 104 - 102. Houston Rockets will face Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference semifinals.
Lu Dort scored career-high 30 points in a game that is the most ever for an undrafted rookie in a game since the draft was introduced in 1947. He also got some records on his name as a rookie for OKC like most points, Most FGs made and most 3PT FGs made by a rookie.
Chris Paul missed a very important shot of a game when 41 seconds to go in the quarter. James Harden blocked a shot of Dort at the last second of a game. It was James Harden's defensive play which stole a show at the end. Dort did a great job guarding him in a game but James Harden blocked his longe range shot at the last moment of a game which could change a result of a game.
