Jalen Green scored 30 points, Cam Whitmore added 27 off the bench and the visiting Houston Rockets never trailed during a 128-111 rout of the New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday night.

Fred VanVleet netted 25 points, Alperen Sengun added 10 points, 13 rebounds and six assists, and Jae’Sean Tate scored 10 points off the bench for the Rockets, who won their fourth straight in a streak that began with a 133-113 rout of the visiting Pelicans one week earlier.

Trey Murphy III scored 21 points, Dejounte Murray and Brandon Boston had 17 each, CJ McCollum scored 13, Javonte Green added 11 and Herbert Jones had 10 for the Pelicans, who lost their eighth consecutive game.

Jalen Green, who scored 34 points in the earlier win against New Orleans, made a 3-pointer to start the third-quarter scoring and increase Houston’s lead to 21 points. The Rockets pushed the margin to 24 before Murphy made three 3-pointers and Murray made one to pull the Pelicans within 83-66 midway through the quarter.

VanVleet answered with a triple, Jalen Green added another later on and Houston expanded the lead to 102-74 at the end of third quarter. New Orleans made just one field goal in the final four minutes of the third.

Jalen Green scored the Rockets’ first five points of the game and VanVleet added eight as Houston opened a 19-12 lead. The Pelicans were within five points until Whitmore and Jalen Green connected from deep to power a 14-2 run that left the Rockets with a 39-22 lead at the end of the period.

Jalen Green (16 points) and VanVleet (10) combined to outscore New Orleans in the first quarter. Houston made 5 of 10 3-pointers in the first period, while the Pelicans missed all seven of their shots from beyond the arc.

The Rockets expanded the lead to 21 points before McCollum made two 3-pointers and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl made one to help New Orleans creep within 50-36. The Pelicans got within 14 points again on a 3-pointer by Murphy, but Houston pushed the lead to 61-43 at the half.
