Three Takeaways as Houston Rockets Close Out Dallas Mavericks

The man of the night for Houston this time is Amen Thompson.

The Rockets star offered another fantastic offensive performance to lead the Rockets. He finished with a highly efficient 27 markers to go with five boards and four assists across 39 minutes.

Thompson was everywhere on the floor for the Rockets. And as early as now, he already submitted the team's top highlight of the season with this jaw-dropping play:

2. Alperen Sengun Was Elite All-Around Again For Houston

Alperen Sengun's all-around brilliance was on full display again as his major numbers propelled the Rockets' statement win against the Mavericks.

The Turkish sensation went off for a 26-point output while grabbing 11 rebounds and dishing out six assists. He dominated the paint, contributing significantly to the Rockets' 62 markers on the shaded area.

Sengun's clutch spin move and floater with less than two minutes remaining emerged as a huge play for the Rockets to escape the Mavericks down the wire. It gave Houston a three-point margin to eventually ace the contest.

3. Tari Eason Stepped Up To Aid The Rockets Over Dallas

Tari Eason was a tremendous boost for the Rockets in outlasting the Mavericks.

As Jabari Smith Jr. didn't play because of an ankle sprain, Eason earned his first start of the season. As such, he impressively stepped up with a 15-point output in 6-of-9 shooting with four boards and two steals.

As Kevin Durant struggled from the floor, Eason's performance was instrumental for the Rockets in taking out the Mavericks and maintaining their win momentum.
