Rockets Extend Winning Streak, Durant Leads Victory Over Jazz
Rockets Extend Winning Streak
Durant’s 25 Points Propel Fifth Consecutive Win
Houston kept rolling on Friday night, defeating the Utah Jazz 140‑106 to notch a fifth straight victory. Kevin Durant anchored the offense with 25 points, shooting efficiently from the field and adding crucial free throws in the second half. The Rockets’ offense clicked on multiple levels, turning fast‑break opportunities into easy buckets and dominating the paint.
Alperen Şengün’s Positive Outlook
Center Alperen Şengün, who delivered encouraging news to fans on Wednesday, continues to be a focal point on both ends of the court. His growing confidence in the low post and willingness to stretch the floor with mid‑range shots have bolstered Houston’s offensive versatility.
Momentum Builds Toward Playoff Push
The Rockets are now perched near the top of the Western Conference’s lower tier, eyeing a postseason berth. Their recent run — four straight wins before the Jazz game, capped by a 119‑113 triumph over a short‑handed Milwaukee Bucks — underscores a team that has found a rhythm under new coaching adjustments.
