Harden鈥檚 record as Rockets top Kings
Print Edition
JAMES Harden matched the franchise record for career triple-doubles to lead the Houston Rockets to a dominating 132-98 victory over the shorthanded Sacramento Kings on Wednesday.
Harden finished with 15 points, 14 assists and 11 rebounds to post his 14th career triple-double and equal the mark set by National Basketball Association Hall of Fame center Hakeem Olajuwon.
Harden needed only 30 minutes to deliver his fifth triple-double on the season in front of a crowd of 15,000 at the Rockets’ Toyota Center arena.
And the Rockets produced a season-high 40 assists on 50 field goals, their most since February 1995.
“Everybody is getting shots, everybody is scoring the basketball. Everybody is happy,” Harden said.
The Rockets improved to 19-7 on the season and won their eighth straight game.
Houston also flirted with the NBA record for three-pointers, hitting 22 of 42 from behind the arc while cruising.
The Rockets extended their league record for consecutive games with at least 10 three-pointers at the 7:13 mark of the second quarter on a three from Sam Dekker.
Forward Ryan Anderson led all five Houston starters in double figures with 22 points. He was 4-for-7 from three-point range while forward Trevor Ariza finished 5-for-7 from beyond the arc.
In San Antonio, Texas, Kawhi Leonard scored 26 points as the San Antonio Spurs held on for a 108-101 win over the Boston Celtics.
Pau Gasol added 17 points and grabbed 13 rebounds and Tony Parker had eight points in a 2-1/2-minute stretch of the fourth quarter to help San Antonio withstand a Celtics comeback try. Parker finished with 16 points, including 10 in the fourth quarter as San Antonio improved to 20-5.
Elsewhere, it was: Clippers 113, Magic 108; Heat 95, Pacers 89; Raptors 123, 76ers 114; Wizards 109, Hornets 106; Nets 107, Lakers 97; Grizzlies 93, Cavaliers 85; Pistons 95, Mavericks 85; and Jazz 109, Thunder 89.
