Christopher finished with 21 points (8-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and one assist across 22 minutes Wednesday in the Rockets' 139-130 overtime victory over the Lakers.

EDGE Analysis

Along with Christopher, fellow rookies Jalen Green (32 points) and Alperen Sengun (21 points) also cleared the 20-point threshold, becoming the first trio of teammates under 20 years old to reach that benchmark in the same game. Even though Houston returned Dennis Schroder (ankle) from a four-game absence, the Rockets were still without Christian Wood (illness) and Jae'Sean Tate (ankle), so Christopher could be a candidate to see his minutes tail off a bit if both Wood and Tate are back in action Friday against the Mavericks.
