In this story:

HOUSTON — The Houston Rockets will return to the Toyota Center for an interconference match against the New York Knicks on Monday night. After a winless four-game road trip, the Rockets are on their longest losing streak of the season. 

In their last contest, the Rockets sustained a 122-113 loss to the Atlanta Hawks. Jalen Green had his best performance of the season by recording his first triple-double with 26 points, 14 rebounds and 10 assists.

"He got himself in a groove as far as passing early, finding guys, not playing in the crowd as much," coach Ime Udoka said. "I'd like to have a few back, especially a late pass that got batted down there, but he played a solid game all around. Good to see him passing the ball when he has it in his hands more often. There was some good improvement from last game to tonight."

The Knicks are entering Houston riding a three-game losing streak following a 125-111 home loss to the Indiana Pacers Saturday night. Jalen Brunson had another prominent performance, scoring 39 points on 14 of 25 shooting.

Amid his first All-Star selection, Brunson has averaged 27.5 points and 6.5 assists across 50 games.
