Alperen Şengün scored 43 points with 12 rebounds and 5 assists as the Houston Rockets beat the Utah Jazz 125-118 in an NBA Cup game at the Toyota Center, Anadolu Agency, BBC Türkçe and Sözcü reported. Sözcü said he scored about 34% of his team’s points on his own.

According to AA, he became the third Rockets player to pass 40 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists in a game, after Yao Ming and James Harden. BBC Türkçe counted it another way: the third in club history, after Hakeem Olajuwon in 1994 and Yao Ming in 2004, to do so while shooting 70% or better.

Kevin Durant added 22 points for Houston. For Utah, Darryn Peterson scored 28 and Keyonte George 27.
