Houston Rockets vs. Miami Heat Preview: How to Watch, Injury Reports, Lineups, More

The Houston Rockets (18-16) will play their first of a six-game road trip against the Miami Heat (20-15) in the Kaseya Center. The Rockets will be looking to build off of their last win against a great Milwaukee Bucks squad.

The team got the better of the Bucks in a close 112-108 finish, and the entire team came to play. The Rockets finished the game with seven players scoring in double figures, and the team’s leading scorer was once again Alperen Şengün.

The Turkish big man is making a habit of getting double doubles, whether it be with assists or rebounds. In his game against the Bucks, he finished with 21 points and 11 rebounds in 31 minutes of play. The Rockets could sure use an all-around team performance like this in their next game against the Heat.

While the Heat will be without Jimmy Butler for the eighth time in the team’s last nine games, that does not mean that they can be underestimated. The trio of Bam Adebayo, Tyler Herro, and rookie Jaime Jaquez Jr can get the job done, and the Rockets should not take them lightly.
