The Rockets have now lost 10 straight games after Tuesday’s loss to the Clippers, but not all the news is bad. Prized rookie Jalen Green has scored 20+ points in three of his last four games, and Houston’s lottery odds and positioning for the 2022 NBA draft continues to improve.
Led by the veteran duo of Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert, the Jazz enter with eight wins in their last nine games, and they’re solidly in possession of the No. 4 spot in the Western Conference playoff race. Houston, on the other hand, ranks dead last in the West — and they’re also more fatigued, since they played a night earlier while Utah did not.
One of those eight wins by the Jazz was a decisive 135-101 blowout over the Rockets on Feb. 14 in Salt Lake City. Can Green and the Rockets somehow get revenge in Houston? It’s a tall order, no pun intended.
Tuesday was a productive night for Houston from a 2022 NBA draft perspective, since the combination of a Nets loss and Clippers win bumps Brooklyn’s first-round pick to No. 15 overall. https://t.co/vQt6xpLvQP
