Alperen Sengun's First NBA Playoff Game

The first possession of Alperen Sengun's NBA playoff career started with an offensive foul drawn by Draymond Green. But two possessions later, the Houston Rockets center got revenge with a powerful dunk over the Golden State Warriors forward. Sengun averaged 19.1 points and 10.3 rebounds during the regular season and earned All-Star honors for the first time in his career. Houston is playing in its first playoff series since 2020. The two have a history from a recent game where Green was hit with a flagrant foul 1 after elbowing Sengun.
