KRISTIE RIEKEN (AP Sports Writer)The Associated Press

Chris Paul scored 25 points, tied a career high with six 3-pointers and had 10 assists, and the Rockets used a big third quarter to pull away and get a 117-102 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. The game was close throughout the first half and the Rockets were up by a point at halftime before using a 43-point third quarter, with from Paul, to extend the lead to 15 to start the fourth. Paul's big game came after he sat out on Friday night to rest, but he wasn't sure how much the break helped.
