Ben, as always, as well.

And we will be back Thursday when it's Rockets Sixers.

So appreciate everybody for tuning in and we will see you guys then.

Thanks, everybody.

Thanks, guys.

Welcome in, everybody.

Rockets get a 119-110 win at home tonight over the New Orleans Pelicans.

And really, the good news from this game is that Jabari Smith Jr., who has significantly struggled with his shot of late, after a really good run, goes through this eight-game stretch where he can't hit anything.

comes out tonight, hits a career-high seven three-point shot, scores 32 points to lead all scorers.

And the Rockets come up with a big win on a night when they needed it from Jabari.

Jabari kind of played the KD role tonight, and KD played the Jabari role from the last several games.

And I'm here with the great Ben Dubose.

You can follow him on Twitter, at Ben Dubose, and you can read all of the stuff at RocketsWire and on ClutchFans as well, ClutchFans.net.

Uh, Ben, you were at the game.

Um, obviously I have, before I kick it to you, I have to tell you like the Jabari news is great.

The Steven Adams news is the real thing that just casts a shadow over this game where Steven Adams landed in the third, fourth quarter.

I think it was, maybe it was early fourth, um, where he landed on his, uh,

left foot and they're calling it a high ankle sprain, but it was non-contact when he landed.

And they, you know, Eme Udoka says nothing's broken, but there's a lot of pain, a lot of swelling, obviously couldn't put weight on it, had to be helped off by two people into the locker room, which is going to weigh loom large because you've got the Spurs on deck and you've got plenty of other tough matchups coming up.

And Steven Adams is a critical player for this team.
