Jalen Green's huge outing helped the Rockets keep pace with the Oklahoma City Thunder. Currently six games behind the Thunder with a 26-12 record, the win over the Grizzlies meant the Rockets retained the second spot in the Western Conference.

After trailing the Grizzlies by a margin of five points at the start of the fourth, the Rockets outscored them by seven in the final quarter as they earned a tough 120-118 win. Green's layup at the death was enough to seal the deal for the Rockets as Ja Morant's 29 points weren't enough to get his team the victory.

Jalen Green not only equaled his career high of 42 points but had a performance of a lifetime. The guard was on the court for 40 minutes and had a 72.5% field goal percentage. He also amassed a 3-point percentage of 83.3% as he converted five of his six attempts. Apart from 42 points, Green also recorded four assists and three rebounds.
