Harden had 28 points, Capela added 23 points with a career-high 25 rebounds and the Rockets never trailed in a lopsided 130-104 win over the Nuggets.
The 23-year-old Capela is the youngest Rocket to have at least 23 points and 25 rebounds in a game since Hakeem Olajuwon had 30 points and 25 rebounds against the Knicks on Feb. 14, 1985. For the losing side, Serb Nikola Jokic had 14 points.
All-Star Giannis Antetokounmpo scored a game-high 23 points to lead the Bucks, who lost for just the second time in nine games, this time on the road to the Heat (91-85) in the first game after the return of Dwyane Wade to Miami.
Former EuroLeague champ Joe Ingles scored a career-high 23 points with six assists and five rebounds for the Jazz, French big man Rudy Gobert added 20 points and 11 rebounds and Utah got the 106-94 win over Charlotte.
Croatian Dario Saric had 24 points and four 3s as the Sixers rolled 100-82 over the New Orleans Pelicans and last but not least, Cedi Osman had 16 points in his first career start in the Cavs’ 123-107 win over Atlanta.
Here are last night’s games and euro-scorers.
