In the Houston Rockets' Monday night win over the Phoenix Suns, Amen Thompson put on a masterful performance. With Kevin Durant out of the lineup for personal reasons, he proved why he's already a total cheat code for this Rockets team.
Against Phoenix, Thompson exploded for 28 points on 10-for-16 shooting, seven rebounds, eight assists and one block while Houston cruised to a 22-point win. He showed his abilities to take over when the team needs him to and exhibited the type of leadership qualities that prove he's the type of talent that can be a total game-changer.
