Draymond Green scored Golden State‘s first six points of the fourth quarter and wound up with 17 points, eight rebounds, six assists and two more blocks to bring his remarkable five-game playoff swat total to 19.

Kevin Durant added 17 points on an uncharacteristically cold shooting night at 7 for 17 and had five rebounds and five assists. He missed the middle two games against Portland because of a strained left calf then returned for 20 minutes in Game 4. Georgian big man Zaza Pachulia scored 10 points in 14 minutes.

French Rudy Gobert had 13 points, eight rebounds, two blocks and a Flagrant 1 foul on Green. His compatriot Boris Diaw added 4 points and 2 rebounds.
