The Houston Rockets defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 108–99 on January 26 at Toyota Center, combining balanced scoring and fourth-quarter dominance to control the matchup. Kevin Durant and Alperen Sengun each posted 33 points, leading a Houston offense that shot 44.6 percent from the field and made 11 three-pointers while maintaining a 107.1 offensive rating. Memphis countered with Jaren Jackson Jr. and Santi Aldama each contributing 17 points, but the Grizzlies' 37.1 percent shooting and seven three-pointers proved insufficient; they managed only a 94.8 offensive rating against Houston's stout 94.8 defensive rating. The fourth quarter proved decisive, with the Rockets outscoring Memphis 32–22 to seal the nine-point victory. Houston's 57 rebounds and 29 assists provided structural advantages over Memphis's 52 boards and 26 assists, while both teams committed turnovers in the mid-teens. The final score fell well short of the 225.5 Vegas total, reflecting a defensive-minded second half. The victory positions Houston firmly in the Western Conference playoff picture as the Grizzlies face continued offensive inconsistency.
