MIAMI

Russell Westbrook got his 15th triple-double of the season by the midpoint of the third quarter, and the Oklahoma City Thunder beat the Miami Heat 106- 94 on Tuesday night to extend their winning streak to four games.

Westbrook finished with 29 points, 17 rebounds and 11 assists. He was two rebounds shy of the triple-double at halftime, and now has six before the end of third quarters this season.

Enes Kanter scored 19 and Steven Adams added 15 — including a highlight reel dunk in the first half — for the Thunder.

Rockets 123, Mavericks 107

DALLAS (AP) — James Harden scored 34 points and Houston completed a four-game season sweep of Dallas in a game marred by eight technical fouls.

Harden had 24 points at halftime and finished with 11 assists without playing in the fourth quarter. The Rockets broke a 37-all tie in the second with a 16-0 run and improved to 13-2 in December.

With two games left in the month, Houston can tie the franchise record of 15 wins from November 1996.

Five of the technicals came during the third quarter, and another during the break before the fourth when Houston’s Trevor Ariza was assessed his second technical and ejected.

There were also two flagrant fouls, both against Dallas.

Jazz 102, Lakers 100

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Joe Ingles made a 3-pointer with 21.6 seconds left to lead Utah over Los Angeles, snapping a three-game losing streak.

Gordon Hayward led the Jazz with 31 points and nine rebounds. Ingles finished with 13 points and Rudy Gobert had 12 points and 11 rebounds.

The Lakers had a final chance to win the game but D’Angelo Russell shot an airball on a 3-point attempt.

Julius Randle had 25 points and 12 rebounds for his team-high ninth double double for the Lakers, who have lost 13 of their last 15. Lou Williams added 22 points off the bench, including nine in the fourth quarter.

It was a rough night for the Lakers’ two No. 2 picks. Russell went 2 for 11 from the field and Brandon Ingram was 2 for 5.
