Description
Chris Paul (13/10) returned from a three-game absence as the Rockets extended their winning streak to 10 games with a 118-86 rout of Chicago at Toyota Center in Houston. Eric Gordon continued his run of elite shooting with a team-high 31 points on 11-of-17 from the field, including eight of Houston's 18 made three-pointers as a team.With the win, the Rockets (61-14) reduced their "magic number" to two games to clinch the West's No. 1 seed over idle Golden State (54-19).
