The Houston Rockets ( 26 - 11 ) cruised during Saturday 's 97 - 82 victory against the Utah Jazz ( 13 - 25 ) . Houston entered the contest with a previously - unknown quandary , but Dwight Howard brushed aside a minor knee injury to earn a game - high 37 minutes . While his double - double streak ended at four outings , he still managed to tally eight points , eight rebounds , one block , and one assist . The bulk of the offense came from a familiar source , James Harden , who recorded his 15th 30 - point game of the season to uphold his status as the NBA 's leading scorer . By drilling four of the Rockets ' 13 three - pointers , he 's now hit multiple treys in five consecutive contests - - and 28 of 37 games this season - - en route to 27 points per outing . Even Donatas Motiejunas got in on the act , knocking down one trey , but more important was his third double - double of 2014 - 15 ( 14 points , 10 boards , and three steals in 36 minutes ) . On Monday , the Rockets return to the East Coast to take on the Brooklyn Nets , with an eye on extending their winning streak to four games . After Wednesday 's impressive win in Chicago , the Jazz have suffered back - to - back defeats , and the primary culprit has been a combined 47 turnovers , including 27 on Saturday . On a positive note , the frontcourt welcomed back Enes Kanter following a four - game absence due to a sprained ankle , and the big man responded with 16 points , six rebounds , and one steal in only 21 minutes . The presence of Kanter did n't push Rudy Gobert back to the bench ( yet ) . However , the Frenchman upheld his workload from Kanter 's stay on the sideline , racking up four points , five boards , three assists , three blocks , and one steal in 35 minutes . By the final horn , the Jazz had shot merely 41 percent from the field , but no one contributed to the mark more than Gordon Hayward , who put up an ordinary nine points on 2 - for - 10 shooting . Upon returning to Utah , the Jazz will attempt to press the reset button in their next outing , Tuesday versus the Golden State Warriors .
