 | Houston has a new sheriff and he`s not James Harden31-10-2017 |
Ben Simmons did not stop to impress with the variety of his game, and only a day after the 23-point personal record, the youngster improved him and Philadelphia won a Houston guest with 115: 107. The 21-year-old Australian was at the heart of Sexton`s third win during the season, but she also came with help from Joel Embyd, Dario Sarric, as well as a solid turnout from the bench.
Simons scored 24 points in 10/14 shooting for 2 points, made 9 assists and took 7 rebounds for 39 minutes. Embe had a good partner, and in just 25 minutes he had 22 points, took 9 rebounds and gave 5 ending passes. Sarric finished 14 points, and Timothy Louau Cabaro (17), TJ McConnell (11) and Amir Johnson (12) united for a total of 40 points from the bench.
James Harden scored 29, and Eric Gordon 25 for Rockets, who scored 47 times in three, succeeding in 13 of them. The loss was second consecutive for Houston and a third in the new season.
Filley in turn has 3 wins and 4 losses.
