The Houston Rockets will play game two of a four-game homestand when Indiana visits Toyota Center on Friday night. If you’re wondering how you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
The Rockets have had a tough scheduling stretch of late. Over Houston’s last 15 games, only three opponents have had below .500 records, and two of those (Lakers, Pelicans) are at least tracking to make the Western Conference’s play-in tournament for the 2022 playoffs.
The Pacers, however, own the NBA’s fifth-worst record and are 24 games below .500. Like Houston, Indiana is clearly out of playoff contention, making this an unpredictable battle between rebuilding clubs. Finally, the young Rockets face another team in their weight class.
Between prized rookie Jalen Green and second-year guard Tyrese Haliburton, who the Pacers recently traded for, it’s a fun matchup at Toyota Center featuring two of the NBA’s most promising young guards.
Rockets rookie Usman Garuba, who has had all kinds of injury issues all season and has been back for two games, sprained his left ankle in three-on-three drills after practice today. He is out tomorrow vs. the Pacers. https://t.co/kJ0uDl2CxL
