HOUSTON - Morris Peterson scored 18 points and shut down Tracy McGrady to lead the Toronto Raptors to a 94-81 win over the injury-depleted Houston Rockets on Wednesday night.

The 6-foot-7 Peterson also had five rebounds and seven assists, but he was at his best blanketing McGrady, who scored only seven points on 2-of-11 shooting after averaging 27 in Houston's previous nine games.

Former Rocket Mike James, traded to Toronto in October, scored 19 and Chris Bosh had 17 for the Raptors, who won for the fifth time in six December road games.

Juwan Howard scored 21 and rookie Luther Head had 20 for the Rockets, who lost for just the third time in 10 games.

McGrady had a season-high 11 assists, but could've had twice that number if his teammates had hit more open shots 錕斤拷 the Rockets went 5 for 21 from 3-point range (24 percent).

Peterson shadowed McGrady wherever he went and whenever the five-time All-Star touched the ball, Peterson and another Raptor double-teamed him.

And with no Yao Ming and only nine healthy players, Houston didn't have enough answers.

Yao is out at least six weeks after surgery on his infected left big toe. Houston also played without Yao's backup, Dikembe Mutombo (dislocated right middle finger), and guards Derek Anderson (calf strain), Jon Barry (calf strain) and Rafer Alston (fractured fibula).

The Rockets missed 9 of their first 12 shots and trailed from the opening minutes.

McGrady and Howard scored 14 of Houston's first 16 points, but the more-balanced Raptors built a nine-point lead in the opening quarter.

Head and Moochie Norris, pressed into more playing time because of injuries to other Houston guards, helped the Rockets cut the lead to five by halftime. Together, they had 17 points in the second quarter and Head sank a 3-pointer in the half's final minute to trim Houston's deficit to 48-43.
