Fred VanVleet scored 29 points as the Houston Rockets beat the Golden State Warriors 115-107 to level their NBA play-off first-round series at 3-3 and force a deciding game seven.<\/b><\/p>\n

Experienced point guard VanVleet starred for the Rockets, adding eight assists and eight rebounds to his points haul, while Alperen Sengun recorded a double-double with 21 points and 14 rebounds.<\/p>\n

The Warriors held a commanding 3-1 lead in the series but have twice failed to close it out, losing to the Rockets in game five on Wednesday and again in game six on Friday.<\/p>\n

Rockets head coach Ime Udoka said of VanVleet: “He’s had some really good stretches lately.<\/p>\n

“He knows what it is. He’s been a champion. Been there, done that. So I wouldn’t expect anything less than that from him.”<\/p>\n

Warriors coach Steve Kerr added: “I thought we got some good looks against the zone but then, once they pulled away by 10 or 12, it was easier for them to run us off the line.”<\/p>\n

The Rockets will host game seven on Sunday, with the winning team to face the Minnesota Timberwolves who clinched a 4-1 win against the Los Angeles Lakers.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
