On January 17, Beijing time, the NBA regular season, the Rockets lost back-to-back to the Lakers 132-140, suffering 11 consecutive losses. The Rockets trailed by as many as 16 points in the first three quarters before chasing the gap to two points, although the Lakers relied on a 9-0 offensive climax in the final quarter to stretch the gap again. The Rockets continued to bite the score and show tenacity, but the Lakers still won the game with James' season-high wild performance of 48 points. Although the Rockets ultimately lost the game, their game was not without merit, and Shin Kyung's performance surprised fans enough.
Shin Kyung's performance in this game was particularly dazzling, and he was on fire in the first half, with 20 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks on 9-of-11 shooting. In the end, he played more than 37 minutes, and he scored 33 points, 15 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 blocks on 14-of-17 shooting, which caused fans to marvel.
