Houston Rockets

  2. James Harden
  3. Danuel House Jr.
  4. PJ Tucker
  5. Clint Capela

Things to keep in mind:

  • Eric Gordon will be playing basketball tonight.
  • Denzel Valentine went off last night in the G-League, dropping 25 points and grabbing 18(!) rebounds. He was expected to remain with the Windy City Bulls through today, but the Bulls recalled him with Daniel Gafford earlier this morning. As of now though, Boylen said Valentine remains behind Shaq Harrison and Ryan Arcidiacono in the rotation.
  • Otto is getting better already!
  • The Rockets defense is bad, folks. Houston has the third-worst defensive rating in the league (113.1).
