Two in-form teams, the Houston Rockets (5-1) and the Boston Celtics (5-1), are set to clash at Toyota Center in an NBA cross-conference clash. The two teams have seen two of their last three games end with over 216.5 points; hence our prediction for a similar outcome.
The Houston Rockets are the second-best team in the Western Conference this season. The home side trails the Memphis Grizzlies at the top, who have maintained a 100% record.
In their recent match, the Rockets returned to winning ways after beating the Oklahoma City Thunder 119-98 at home. Jabari Smith Jr. was the best player on the floor, scoring a game-high 30 points.
This comes after suffering their first defeat to the Mavericks, ending a five-match winning streak.
The Boston Celtics are also the second-best team in the Eastern Conference, having posted a 5-1 record. They trail table-toppers Philadelphia 76ers.
The Celtics did not have the best start to the 2026-27 NBA regular season, suffering an away defeat to the Detroit Pistons. Their response, however, has been impressive, recording five straight wins.
In their recent match, they beat the Orlando Magic 108-97 on the road. Five players scored in double digits, with Jayson Tatum leading the team with a game-high 32 points.
