Amen Thompson Goes Nuclear Scoring 22 Points As Rockets Blast Off Against Pelicans 109-97

Amen Thompson’s hot streak continued for the Houston Rockets, tallying 22 points and 11 rebounds in his team’s 109-97 win over the New Orleans Pelicans. The highly anticipated matchup did not disappoint, with both teams showcasing their skills on the court. Thompson, who has been on a tear lately, once again demonstrated his impressive abilities, leading his team to victory with a double-double performance.

Zion Williamson, the Pelicans’ star player, also put up an impressive double-double, posting 20 points and 10 rebounds in the loss. Despite his best efforts, however, the Pelicans were unable to contain the Rockets’ high-powered offense, which saw multiple players scoring in double figures.

The win marked a significant milestone for the Rockets, who have been struggling to find consistency this season. With Thompson at the helm, the team appears to be turning a corner, and their recent performances have been a testament to their growing chemistry and cohesion on the court.

The Pelicans, on the other hand, will look to regroup and refocus after the tough loss. Williamson’s double-double was a bright spot, but the team’s inability to defend against the Rockets’ balanced attack proved to be their downfall.

As the season progresses, both teams will be looking to make a push for the playoffs. The Rockets, with Thompson leading the charge, appear to be gaining momentum, while the Pelicans will need to find a way to overcome their defensive struggles if they hope to compete with the top teams in the league.
