In a tight win-or-go-home Game 7, an unlikely hero emerged for the Golden State Warriors when they needed it most.
While it looked like Steph Curry, Jimmy Butler or Draymond Green would have to lead the Warriors past the Houston Rockets to punch a ticket to the second round of the postseason, it was Buddy Hield who took over in Game 7 on Sunday.
The veteran sharpshooter tallied a game-high 33 points on 12-of-15 shooting from the field with nine made triples in 37 minutes to fuel the Warriors' 103-89 win in Game 7 to eliminate the No.
