WASHINGTON -- James Harden was not about to let one rough half ruin his evening.And the Houston Rockets star guard figures he has enough help around the court that the points are bound to flow for himself and the rest of his team.Harden set aside a slow start to finish with 32 points and 15 assists -- his fourth straight 30-10 game -- and led the Rockets past the slumping Washington Wizards 114-106 on Monday night.Chemistry with everybody is getting there, Harden said after helping Houston improve to 4-3, with help from Ryan Andersons 23 points, Trevor Arizas 15 and Clint Capelas 14. Its just predicated on me making the right decision.Washingtons John Wall broke Hall of Fame center Wes Unselds franchise record for career assists before getting ejected with 33.3 seconds left and his team trailing by five en route to falling to 1-5.Official Marc Davis explained the reason for Walls second technical foul this way via a pool report: After granting the team a timeout, I felt that there was contact and that he bumped me. I wasnt certain of his intent. I told him to watch himself. He looked over his shoulder and used vulgarity and inappropriate language.Wall left with 21 points and eight assists.I didnt do a good job of helping us win, he said.Harden shot just 1 for 4 and had five turnovers in the opening period, which ended with Washington ahead 30-23, and had only seven points by halftime.But he got more and more involved at the offensive end and scored eight consecutive Houston points in one stretch of the fourth quarter, including half of a 12-0 run that gave the Rockets a 106-95 lead with a little more than 3 1/2 minutes left.He uses his body well. Hes a strong guy. He gets away with a few push-offs, here and there, but thats just the nature of his character, Washingtons Bradley Beal said. Got to give credit where its due: He was struggling in the first half, pretty much almost the whole game, until the last quarter and a half.Harden, who entered the day leading the NBA in assists at 12.3 per game and fourth in scoring average at 31.5 points, made all 11 free throws against Washington.Hes not going to go through a whole game where hes not back on track to a degree, Rockets coach Mike DAntoni said.TIP-INSRockets: Harden scored at least 40 points both times Houston faced Washington last season. ... Fs Ariza and Nene both used to play for Washington. Nene, who went from the Wizards to the Rockets this offseason, was greeted with applause when he entered as a substitute in the first quarter; he finished with four points and four rebounds in 21 minutes.Wizards: F Markieff Morris missed his first nine shots and wound up with seven points on 3-for-14 shooting.WALLS RECORDWall entered the game three assists shy of the club mark of 3,822 assists and tied it in the first quarter. Wall then eclipsed Unseld by feeding Beal during a 12-2 stretch to open the third quarter. It dont mean nothing to me right now, because I didnt win the game, said Wall, in his seventh NBA season since being the No. 1 overall pick in the 2010 draft. But its an honor, and I have a lot of basketball left to play.UP NEXTRockets: Wrap up a five-game trip at the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday.Wizards: Their home stand continues with a game against the Boston Celtics and Al Horford -- whom Washington hoped to land as a free agent -- on Wednesday, followed by a game against LeBron James and the defending NBA champion Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday.

He was followed closely by David Clarkson, donning red, seconds later. Clarksons actions one night earlier, leaping off the bench in defence of Kessel during a pre-season game against the Buffalo Sabres, will cost him the first 10 games of the regular season.

Defenceman Yannick Weber scored the go-ahead goal early in the third period and the Canucks breathed a sigh of relief with a 2-1 win on Saturday night.Saturdays Los Alamitos program features two Grade 1, $300,000 events for juveniles: the Los Alamitos CashCall Futurity for males and the Starlet for fillies. Both races are featured in the late pick four.Trainer Bob Baffert will have the favorite in each race: Mastery in the Futurity and American Gal in the Starlet. If youre able to knock off either or both favorites, you could get a nice score. Heres a look at the sequence.Race 6, FUTURITYMASTERY figures to take the lions share of the money, but Im more interested in Bafferts other entrant, SHOW ME DA LUTE. Hes a full brother to Tiz Midnight, a filly who won the Grade 2 Bayakoa at Los Al in 2014. Mastery certainly is the horse to beat, but hell be trying two turns for the first time, and theres no guarantee that hell relish the additional distance.Race 7DIVINE SPARK ran a winning race at Del Mar on Nov. 20 and is strictly the horse to beat here. Her two Beyer Speed Figures are tops in this field, and she figures to be forwardly placed throughout. Of the first-time starters, ADIOS CALI looks intriguing. A daughter of Adios Charlie, this Peter Miller trainee cost $125,000 at the Barretts March sale this year, and its always nice to see horses drill at a distance farther than the one they will be debuting at (note the six-furlong drill Nov.dddddddddddd 30).Race 8, STARLETAMERICAN GAL is strictly the horse to beat following a brutal trip in the Breeders Cup Juvenile Fillies on Nov. 5. This Baffert trainee was fanned to the 10 path entering the first turn before pulling her way up to the middle of the pack in the clear. That she finished third speaks volumes about her ability.A much longer price to consider is MOPOTISM for Doug ONeill. This daughter of Uncle Mo had an eventful trip in her most recent start at Del Mar, steadying behind runners on the far turn before rallying late inside. She galloped out with energy and gives the impression that additional distance will be her friend. At a giant price, shes worth using.Race 9WE GO NOW stumbled badly out of the gate in his most recent start, and this race essentially becomes his first try against weaker company. GONZO sheds the blinkers in his second start, and its interesting to note the uptick in this colts workout times.TICKET: 3, 4 / 2, 6 / 4, 7 / 2, 6 ' ' '
