With Wednesday's Game 5 results extending the Rockets-Warriors first-round playoff series (thanks to a Houston win) and ending the Timberwolves-Lakers series (with Minnesota advancing), the NBA announced its tipoff times for Friday's Game 6 and a potential Game 7 on Sunday.
Game 6 will tip at 8:00 p.m. Central from Golden State's Chase Center, with Friday's game televised to a national audience on ESPN. Should the Rockets (who currently trail the best-of-seven series, 3-2) win and force a Game 7 on Sunday, that would tip at 7:30 p.m. Central from Toyota Center in Houston.
Game 7 would be televised nationally on TNT. Tickets will go on sale at 2:00 p.m. Central on Thursday.
Because neither game will be on ABC, the Rockets will also have their own regional broadcasts (with Houston's regular-season announcing crew) on Space City Home Network.
The Golden State-Houston winner will ultimately face Minnesota, the No. 6 seed in the Western Conference, in the second round of the 2025 playoffs. The NBA has yet to announce the schedule for that series, since the start date is likely to vary based on whether the Rockets-Warriors series ends on Friday or Sunday.
Game 1 of Rockets-Timberwolves would be played in Houston, while Game 1 of Warriors-Timberwolves would be in Minnesota. The Rockets, as the No. 2 seed in the West, would have home-court advantage over Minnesota — while the No. 7 Warriors would not.
