The New Orleans Hornets bounced back from their Christmas day loss at the hands of the Orlando Magic and sent the Houston Rockets back to the Lone Star State Friday as the losers of a 88-79 contest. Chris Paul recorded a double-double for the Hornets, with a game high 26 points, while David West added 23 points, and Tyson Chandler would also contribute with a double-double. The Rockets were short handed as Ron Artest was out of the game nursing a sore right ankle, New Orleans were without starter Peja Stojakovic, who has a sore back, and backup big man Hilton Armstrong who has a bruised thumb.
