With six straight losses and 11 in their last 12 games, the young Houston Rockets now own the NBA’s worst record in the 2022-23 season. To correct that and begin charting a new course, they need a win, and their next opportunity to get one comes Sunday night.
In theory, it’s a winnable game. The Rockets are at home inside Toyota Center, while the visiting Timberwolves — now the Western Conference’s No. 11 seed and outside the playoff picture — aren’t a dominant opponent, and they won’t be at full strength, either.
