Kevin Durant IGNITES Rockets COMEBACK Vs Suns With Alperen Sengun & Amen Thompson TAKING OVER Late

The Houston Rockets secured a dramatic 119-105 comeback victory over the Phoenix Suns, overcoming a 21-point deficit in the first quarter to complete a season sweep of their Western Conference rivals. Host Jackson Gatlin breaks down the game's pivotal moments, highlighting the Rockets' relentless offensive rebounding—24 offensive boards, including a staggering 24 to the Suns’ 24 defensive rebounds—as the foundation of their rally. The turning point came when Dylan Brooks provoked Kevin Durant into a heated exchange, sparking KD’s offensive surge in the second quarter. The game’s true inflection point, however, was the fourth-quarter takeover by Alperen Sengun and Amen Thompson, who combined for 18 points, 8 rebounds, and 6 assists in a dominant 8-0 run that shifted momentum permanently. Despite foul trouble and early struggles, the Rockets’ defensive intensity, mental resilience, and depth across the roster—featuring standout performances from Tari Eason, Jabari Smith Jr., and Aaron Holiday—enabled them to seize control. The win propelled the Rockets to a 7-game winning streak and tied them with the Lakers for fourth in the West, putting them in prime position for home-court advantage in the first round.
