Jimmy Butler said Dillon Brooks' trash talk inspired his big Game 4 performance on Monday, a 109-106 win against the Houston Rockets

The Warriors on Feb. 5 sent a protected 2025 first-round pick and four players — Andrew Wiggins, Dennis Schroder, Kyle Anderson, and Lindy Waters III — to various destinations in the complicated, multi-team deal that brought Butler to the Bay from Miami. Golden State signed Butler to a two-year, $121 million contract extension through 2027.

There were three technical fouls given to each team, plus one flagrant foul on Jalen Green when he struck Draymond Green in the face, during Game 2. There was also a scuffle at midcourt during the fourth quarter, which saw Rockets forward Tari Eason throw a towel at Warriors reserve Pat Spencer.
