Pelicans Soar Past Houston Rockets in Loss: Player Grades

The Houston Rockets headed down I-10 East for a one game road trip Saturday, as they took on Anthony Davis and the New Orleans Pelicans, at the Smoothie King Center. Heading into this game, the Rockets were riding high after their Christmas day victory against the San Antonio Spurs.

For the Rockets, what looked like a blowout win in the making, quickly turned into a voodoo nightmare. The Rockets blew an 11 point lead as they headed into the half. It was everything but easy for Houston.
