In what could be a sizable mismatch, the young Houston Rockets (10-23) continue a tough three-game road trip with Tuesday’s visit to Boston, where the host Celtics own the NBA’s best record (24-10).
The good news for the visitors is that the Rockets enter coming off Monday’s feel-good victory in Chicago, led by dynamic performances from young prospects Kevin Porter Jr., Jalen Green and Alperen Sengun. The bad news is they will be asked to repeat that showing against a superior opponent on night two of a back-to-back.
