Amen Thompson scored 28 points, Aaron Holiday added 22 off the bench and the Houston Rockets beat the Phoenix Suns 114-92 on Monday night, despite not having star forward Kevin Durant in the lineup for the first time this season. The Rockets won for the 11th time in 13 games, bouncing back from Friday night’s loss to the Nuggets. The Suns had their three-game winning streak snapped. Houston was in control for most of the night, never trailing after early in the first quarter. Durant missed the game for personal reasons, delaying his return to the city where he spent the previous 2 1/2 seasons.
