The Houston Rockets defeated the Los Angeles Clippers 122 - 103 Wednesday at Staples Center . After a high - scoring , competitive first quarter , the Rockets ( 43 - 19 ) wasted no time opening up the game in the second period and building their lead up to 12 points before entering the locker room . From there , Houston continued to pour it on from there and reached a lead as large as 30 points as the two teams entered the fourth quarter . James Harden led the way scoring four the Rockets with a game - high 26 points to go along with nine assists in 36 minutes , while Ryan Andersen was hitting on all cylinders Wednesday night , hitting 6 - of - 11 shots from behind the arc en route to scoring 23 points in 30 minutes . His shooting was contagious , as the entire Houston team hit 20 threes , proving to have too much firepower for their opponent . Their opponent , the Clippers ( 36 - 24 ) , proved to be overmatched once again by a Western Conference foe and have now lost three of their last four games after entering the All-Star break on a four - game winning streak . As a result of the loss , the Clippers are now just a half - game ahead of the sixth - place Grizzlies and one game ahead of the Thunder at the No . 7 spot . Blake Griffin led the way scoring for Los Angeles , but had just 17 points , four rebounds and five assists in 35 minutes . Chris Paul had a double - double of 16 points and 11 assists , but he shot a disappointing 5 - of - 13 from the field . As a team , the Clippers managed to shoot just 44 percent from the field in the embarrassing defeat . Up next , the Rockets will head home Saturday to take on the Grizzlies , while the Clippers will look to get back on the right track in Milwaukee on Friday .
