SAN ANTONIO (AP) — LaMarcus Aldridge had 25 points and 10 rebounds, and the San Antonio Spurs rebounded from their worst loss in three years to bash the Houston Rockets 130–99 on Wednesday night and remain undefeated at home.

San Antonio (39–7) has won 25 straight at home to open the season and 34 consecutive dating back to last season.

Aldridge bounced back—as did the rest of the Spurs—after he was held to five points and three rebounds in a 30-point loss to Golden State on Monday.

San Antonio had 32 assists and shot 56 percent from the field in snapping Houston’s three-game winning streak and handing the Rockets their worst loss of the season.

James Harden had 20 points and Dwight Howard added 13 for Houston.
