The Toronto Raptors defeated the Houston Rockets 115 - 102 at Toyota Center on Wednesday. It was a wire - to - wire victory for the Raptors (9 - 6), who ended their two - game slide Wednesday night on the road. While he did n't reach his scoring average on the season, DeMar DeRozan still led the way with 24 points, nine assists and five rebounds in 36 minutes, with DeMarre Carroll managing to score 20 points of his own on 9 - of - 14 shooting. Jonas Valanciunas added a double - double of 15 points and 16 rebounds in what was a great night for the Toronto starting lineup, who scored 78 of the team's 115 points. As a team, the Raptors shot a scorching 12 - of - 23 (52 percent) from behind the arc. For the Rockets (9 - 6), it was James Harden, as usual, leading the way with 29 points, 15 assists and six rebounds in 41 minutes. He was, however, a bit careless with the basketball, managing 12 turnovers and nearly matching the Raptors' team total of 14. As a team, the Rockets had an astonishing 26 turnovers, which led to plenty of empty possessions that ultimately left them with little chance to win Wednesday's contest. On the bright side, each of the five Houston starters scored in double figures, but Ryan Andersen had the next highest total behind Harden with just 13 points. Up next, the Raptors will head to Milwaukee on Friday to take on the Bucks, while the Rockets will travel Friday to Sacramento and play the Kings.
