The Clippers are coming off of a 95-93 win in Houston on Halloween Night because of a huge game-winning mid-range jumpshot by All-Star G Paul George, who scored 35 points on 15-of-26 shooting from the field. Only 2 other players scored in the double figures and George had by far the best +/- rating of any player with a +16.
The Rockets leading scorer in that outing was F'Kenyon Martin Jr.'off the bench with 23 points on 9-of-17 shooting. Four 4 of their 5 starters also scored in double figures, but none eclipsed 20 points. As a team they shot a terrible 38% from the floor and 28% from beyond the arc.
