Chris Paul had 23 points and 17 assists as the Houston Rockets beat the Golden State Warriors 118-112 on Saturday at Oracle Arena in Oakland, California.

Houston was without MVP candidate James Harden, who sat with a cervical strain. Warriors forward Draymond Green was forced to leave early in the fourth quarter after suffering a left ankle sprain.

Eric Gordon led the Rockets with 25 points, and Kenneth Faried added a 20-point, 10-rebound double-double.

Kevin Durant scored 29 points for the 42-17 Warriors, who have lost just three of their last 20 games.

The 34-25 Rockets broke a two-game losing streak.

                          

What’s Next?

Both teams play next on Monday. The Rockets will host the Atlanta Hawks, and the Warriors will begin a four-game Eastern Conference road trip against the Charlotte Hornets.
