The Rockets have won the last two meetings with the Celtics. Before this switch of the script, they had won just once in nine showdowns with their upcoming visitors.
Former Boston coach Ime Udoka orchestrated a dominant 128-101 win in the first meeting of the season. With their dominant home form, Houston will be confident of another win.
The Rockets, who are on a three-game winning run, are 17-4 at home. They defeated the Pacers 118-114 last time out.
The Celtics are also coming into Houston in strong form. Joe Mazzulla’s men are on a three-game winning run. They have won against the Bucks, Kings, and Mavericks.
The Celtics defeated the Mavs 110-100 last time out as they began a short two-game road trip. Currently on the tail end of a no-rest schedule, the Celtics have improved to 32 wins.
Boston has been active in the trade market and recently dealt Anfernee Simons to get Nikola Vucevic, adding much-needed front-court presence.
