Why — matchup factors
Stephen Curry draws Houston Rockets's drop coverage scheme — sits the big back to wall off the rim and lives with contested mid-range looks.
Primary assignment projects to Amen Thompson (strong defender, 86 Perimeter D), Josh Okogie secondary, with Alperen Sengun as the low-man/help.
Model lines Curry at 26.3 pts (range 22.3–30.3) vs a 26.5 line — roughly a coin flip to clear it (48%).
Model favors Houston Rockets (64%), projected 110–114, ~224 total at 96.5 pace.
