In an NBA increasingly known for load management, Rockets guard Jalen Green is an exception to the rule. Tuesday was his 150th consecutive start.
Green continued to stay hot in the third quarter, scoring 12 points to help the Rockets gain a lead. Jae'Sean Tate was also solid in the period, scoring eight points. Houston ended the third quarter up 82-73 after a solid performance from the two players.
