The National Basketball Association played seven regular season games.
Houston snapped its ugly five-game losing streak in the NBA. The Texas team visited Chicago last night, and it was surprisingly easy to deal with the local “bulls”. The final siren recorded 133:118 in favor of the “rockets”.
But Detroit failed to achieve a similar feat. The team also didn’t know the joy of winning five games and extended this streak to six with a home game against the Clippers. The Los Angeles club won 142:131.
