The 7-1 Houston Rockets will play host to the 5-3 Minnesota Timberwolves in a Western Conference matchup early on Thursday morning. The Rockets are 1st in the West standings while the Timberwolves are 8th. Home advantage can see Houston continue their impressive start to the season.
It has been an excellent start to the season for Houston, and arguably they will feel that they should be unbeaten, heading into the final quarter in Dallas against the Mavericks with an eight-point lead before falling by five after giving up 40 in the final quarter.
They are yet to taste defeat at Toyota Center, beating the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Boston Celtics in their last two here by 21 and 16 points respectively. Both of those teams will expect to be contenders come the end of the season.
Minnesota is 2-2 on the road so far, landing those victories in their opening pair of games in Florida before falling to the Cleveland Cavaliers in overtime and then the San Antonio Spurs.
This is their toughest task of the season so far though it is a matchup that they have had great success with in recent years, They are missing Anthony Edwards which is a big loss ahead of this difficult assignment.
