The Golden State Warriors lost Game 2 of their first-round playoff series with Houston Rockets, 105-94, on Wednesday night and they played most of the game without Jimmy Butler, who exited after taking a painful fall in the first quarter and didn't return.
Butler was ruled out with a pelvic contusion and his status for Game 3, which is Saturday night in San Francisco, is not yet known. The next step for Butler will come later Thursday when he undergoes an MRI.
