Beverley's 3 helps Rockets down Suns, despite Goran Dragic's career high

Patrick Beverley made the biggest shot of the night in the Rockets' 115-112 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Sunday.

Beverley's 3-pointer with 34.3 seconds to play put Houston ahead for good, then his two free throws with 20 seconds to go, the last of his 12 fourth-quarter points, helped seal the win.

Dwight Howard scored 25, James Harden 23 and Beverley 20 for the Rockets, who trailed by 10 entering the fourth quarter but pulled out their ninth victory in 10 games.

Goran Dragic scored a career-high 35 against his former team, but missed what would have been the game-tying 3 at the buzzer.
