Having taken different paths in their opening NBA fixtures, the San Antonio Spurs and the Houston Rockets will lock horns at Frost Bank Center. The Spurs won 145-120 at this venue in the previous season, and our prediction is for the total point line to exceed 224.5.
The San Antonio Spurs began the regular NBA season on a rough note. Mitch Johnson's men fell 116-104 at home to the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Victor Wembanyama had a night to forget in terms of offense. The Frenchman managed just one field goal from 13 attempts—a career low—while recording 12 points and 13 rebounds.
The Spurs will be hoping to find the rhythm that saw them win their final two NBA preseason games. They averaged 120+ points in both encounters.
In contrast, the Houston Rockets are in a jubilant mood after a dominant 128-110 home victory over the Dallas Mavericks in the opening match.
Kevin Durant and Jabari Smith Jr. were the standout players, scoring 30 points each. Their laudable performance not only powered their team to a win but also ended an eight-game losing streak on NBA opening night since 2017.
The Rockets have won three of their last four competitive matches, stretching back to the previous season. A second consecutive win could be on the cards if they replicate their free-scoring performance from the opener.

Our San Antonio Spurs vs Houston Rockets Prediction
The San Antonio Spurs have dominated this fixture against the Houston Rockets in past meetings. The Spurs boast three wins in their last four games, with last season's final match ending in a 145-120 rout of the visiting team.
The hosts will want to use this opportunity to get their NBA regular season on track after a disappointing opener. However, the Houston Rockets, who impressed in their opener with a 128-110 win, shouldn't be underestimated, and another free-scoring performance is likely to lead to an entertaining affair. Our San Antonio Spurs vs. Houston Rockets prediction: over 224.5 points.
