HOUSTON (AP) — Gary Trent Jr. scored a season-high 42 points, and the Toronto Raptors pushed their season-high winning streak to eight games with a 139-120 victory over the Houston Rockets on Thursday night.
Toronto’s winning streak is the longest active one in the NBA and the loss extends Houston’s skid to four games.
It was Trent’s seventh game with 30 points or more this season and Pascal Siakam added 30 points for his sixth 30-point game of the season. Trent and Siakam both got going early and had 25 and 26 points respectively by halftime as Toronto built a 73-64 lead.
