Reed Sheppard scored 12 of his 21 points off the bench in the fourth quarter to help spark the Houston Rockets to a 111-106 comeback win over the visiting San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday.
The Rockets erased a 16-point deficit en route to squaring the season series with the Spurs at a game apiece. Sheppard was the linchpin in the final period, igniting a 9-0 start to the period with an assist on a Kevin Durant basket, a 3-pointer, and a steal that resulted in a second-chance basket from Dorian Finney-Smith.
