Green scores 30 to lead the Rockets to a 128-111 victory over the hapless Pelicans

Associated Press  

NEW ORLEANS — Jalen Green scored 30 points in less than 30 minutes on the court, and the Houston Rockets cruised to a 128-111 victory over the hapless, injury-plagued New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday night. Fred VanVleet hit seven 3-pointers and finished with 25 points for Houston, which has won four straight and six of seven while climbing to second place in the highly competitive Western Conference. Brandon Boston and Dejounte Murray each scored 17 points, and CJ McCollum added 13 for New Orleans, which, like Houston, limited starters to 31 or fewer minutes of playing time after it became clear the game would not be competitive. Key moment Green and VanVleet sandwiched a pair of 3s each around Sengun’s dunk in the first 3:26 of the third quarter, helping the Rockets build a 75-51 lead.
