5 years agoNew York Knicks guard RJ Barrett matched his career-high of 27 points in a surprise upset win over the Houston Rockets on Monday night. Barrett shot an efficient 10 of 18 from the field, adding five rebounds, five assists, three triples, and a steal. The former Duke star has been playing well since the All-Star break, with averages of 17.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.5 triples per game on 47.7 percent shooting from the field. Barrett will look to stay hot against the Jazz, who held him to just 30 percent shooting in their most recent meeting.--Tim Capurso
