After spending 32 minutes on the court, Ballas managed to add 24 points (0/6 doubles, 7/12 trit., 3/4 penalty), 7 rebounds, 10 assists and 4 errors. The nineteen-year-olds with Stephen Curry and Jason Kiddo became the third newcomer in NBA history with at least 10 assists and 7 accurate triples.
Ballas, who has received much criticism before the start of his career for non-standard shooting techniques, has hit as many as 21 of 40 3-pointers in the last six games.
After playing a disastrous fourth half, the Rockets played without John Wall and Eric Gordon. In less than 24 hours in New Orleans, the Texans will face the Pelicans to rest next night’s defensive duo and give Victor Oladipo, who played tonight, a break in Louisiana.
In the deciding quarter, the Houston visitors scored just 2 of the game’s 19 pitches. The Rockets made their first pitch in the fourth half after playing more than seven and a half minutes. Besides the rest, the team led by Gordon and Wall Stephen Silas was not helped by Christian Wood, who will not return to the court in the near future due to injury.
“Hornets”: LaMelo Ball 24 (7 reqs., 10 res.), Gordon Hayward and Miles Bridges (10 reqs.) 19 points each, Terry Rozier 15, Malik Monk 14, Cody Zeller 10 points.
“Rockets”: Victor Oladipo 21 (3/10 trit., 7 rebounds, 6 res.), Ben McLemore 15, Danuel House and JaeSean Tate 13 points each.
Another Texas state club, the San Antonio Spurs, were much more successful tonight (14-10). The students of the legendary Gregg Popovich broke the Golden State Warriors team (12-12) at home after a tenacious fight with the result 105: 100 (27:36, 27:23, 24:21, 27:20).
San Francisco guests had a chance to take advantage of the overtime, but it was spoiled by Draymond Green, who made a difficult decision. With less than nine seconds left in the fourth quarter and the team three points away, the forward recovered the ball from the sidelines near the center line and launched a virtually impossible shot from a staggering distance.
Draymond attempted a game-tying shot from near the middle of the court and missed.

Green’s pitch was inappropriate, and DeMar DeRozan, who bounced the ball, secured the Spurs victory with a free throw. A long shot would have brought the Warriors veteran a triple-double: Draymond finished the game with 7 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists.
Dejounte Murray, who had an incredible performance, set a new career record. The defender, originally from the city of Seattle, not only scored 27 points and 10 rebounds, but also grabbed 8 balls for the first time in the NBA league.
“Spurs”: Dejounte Murray 27 (10 rebels, 4 reb, 8 reb), DeMaras DeRozanas 21 (8/8 penalties, 6 reb, 10 reb), Jakob Poeltlas 14 (11 req., 4 bl.), Rudy Gay 11 , Devin Vassell 10 points.
“Warriors”: Stephen Curry 32 (6/11 trit., 7 rebounds, 6 res.), Kelly Oubre 24 (4/8 trit.), Andrew Wiggins 11 points.
