Chuma Okeke’s Career Night Helps Magic Top Rockets

The Lead

Chuma Okeke scored a career-high 26 points while stuffing the rest of the stat sheet with nine rebounds, four assists, three steals and one block, and R.J. Hampton recorded 11 points, five boards and four dimes in his first game back from a knee injury as the Orlando Magic pulled away from the Houston Rockets late for a 119-111 victory on Friday night at Amway Center.

Clutch Moments

Inside of four minutes left in the fourth quarter, Okeke made three straight buckets to kick off an 11-2 Magic run. The last of them was a 3-pointer, one of five he made throughout the game.
