Kings 135, Rockets 115: Sacramento's fourth-quarter barrage extends Houston's skid
Houston Rockets guard Jalen Green meets rapper 50 Cent before the team's NBA basketball game against the Sacramento Kings in Sacramento, Calif., Wednesday, Jan. 11, 2023. SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The Rockets were miraculously still in the game, having wrestled a one-point lead at the end of three quarters and stayed within a few possessions thereafter, but they were up against the wall.
Center Alperen Sengun took charge of the offense and directed traffic en route to his first career triple-double. Garrison Mathews came out firing away from 3-point land. Assists flowed and shots fell. Rockets point guard Kevin Porter Jr. played just 10 minutes in the first quarter and not at all after that, limited by a left foot contusion he suffered during the game. Even without him, the Rockets recovered their shooting and pushed the pace enough to erase a 12-point deficit and take the Kings down to the wire.
