Tari Eason scored a career-high 30 points to lead the Houston Rockets to an easy 133-96 win over the Dallas Mavericks Friday night. Jalen Green added 23 points with nine rebounds, despite sitting the entire fourth quarter to help the Rockets to their fifth straight win, tying their longest such streak of the season.

Houston's six-game homestand, which is its longest of the 2024-25 NBA season, reaches game five with Saturday's matchup versus the Chicago Bulls (27-38). The Rockets are just 6-9 on the second night of back-to-backs this season, although there is no travel in-between this particular set.

After seeing various lulls throughout the season, the Houston Rockets are finally back on a hot-streak. They’ve won four-straight games, and will look to win their fifth against in-state rival Dallas on Friday night.
