Rockets secure first win in near wire-to-wire victory over Jazz 114-108

It took a few games and it wasn’t necessarily pretty, but the Houston Rockets finally entered the win column with their six point win over the Utah Jazz. Houston’s young trio of Kevin Porter Jr. (26 points and 10 rebounds), Jalen Green (25 on 4-8 from three point range) and Jabari Smith Jr. (21 points, 9 rebounds and 3 blocks) led the way as the team never trailed by more than one.

It was a rewarding win for a team that was shorthanded at the center spot as they were once again missing Bruno Fernando (ankle) and got a late scratch from Alperen Sengun (illness).
