Houston Rockets vs Golden State Warriors Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 11/26/25

It is arguable the game of the night in San Francisco between the Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets. Unfortunately for us, injuries have derailed both teams a little, but that shouldn’t take away from the overall experience. Houston did beat Phoenix without Kevin Durant in their last game 114-92, however he could be joined by Steven Adams who finds himself on the injury report with an ankle issue. He has been a real difference maker for Houston, adding to their rebounding capabilities and making them one of the tallest line-ups in NBA history.

Meanwhile, the Warriors have Draymond Green, Al Horford, Jonathan Kuminga and De’Anthony Melton on the injury report. Green and Horford could play, but let’s be real it all starts and ends with Jimmy Butler and Stephen Curry here.  After one of the most brutal stretches to start a season, the Warriors welcomed the Jazz with open hands in their last game and won by 17. With games against the Thunder and Cavaliers coming up later in the week, the schedule doesn’t get any easier. The oddsmakers still have a lot of faith in Golden State, making them slight favorites here. They’ve covered in 6 of 7 home games, while against the Rockets they’re 9-2 SU in 11 games at home.

Adjustments will need to be made by the Rockets without two very important players here. Despite the better record I’m hesitant to back them against the Warriors here, Curry and co. need a win against a solid team to get back some of their confidence. Give me Golden State to cover.
