Rockets roll to 10th straight victory

Jalen Green stars to help red-hot Houston stay in play-in hunt

OKLAHOMA CITY — The Houston Rockets didn't care that they beat an Oklahoma City squad that was missing its best player, All-Star guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.

The Rockets celebrated loudly in the locker room after escaping with a win at one of the toughest venues in the league. Jalen Green scored 37 points and Houston won its 10th straight game, defeating the Thunder 132-126 in overtime on Wednesday night.

"It was lit, it was lit," Green said. "Everybody was happy, celebrating, screaming. I mean, we fought for that one. We worked hard."
