At the beginning of the first quarter, the Rockets quickly took the lead with Jalen Green and Shin Jing scoring as the core.

At the end of the first quarter, the Rockets led 38-19.
In the second quarter, the Suns stepped up their offense, with players such as Beal, Bol and Booker stepping up to try to catch up with the score. However, the Rockets didn't let up, and Jalen Green's stellar performance undone the Suns' efforts. At the end of the first half, the Rockets continued to lead at 54-44.
In the second half of the game, the Suns were not to be outdone, and Durant's consecutive scoring brought a ray of life to the team. However, the Rockets' performance remained resilient, with players such as Jalen Green and Dillon playing steadily and maintaining their lead. Although the Suns once chased the score to 4 points, the Rockets still stubbornly resisted and maintained the lead.
Heading into the final quarter, the Suns sprinted with all their might to try to get back into the score. Brilliant performances from players such as Durant and Booker once brought the score closer. However, the Rockets kept their cool and withstood the Suns' pressure to eventually win 118-109.
