Houston's game plan was heavily geared toward making Curry's evening miserable. He missed 9 of his 10 shots and scored only three points.

Last week, Stephen Curry dropped 52 points, 37 points and 36 points in the span of three games, reminding fans that he can still be the elite scorer he was when he won back-to-back MVPs. On Sunday, it was a different story.

Dillon Brooks went for a game-high 24 points, Amen Thompson spearheaded a suffocating defense on Stephen Curry and the Houston Rockets took a step toward clinching the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference with a 106-96 victory over the Golden State Warriors in San Francisco on Sunday night.
