Oklahoma City Thunder (7-1) will host Houston Rockets (5-3) in a thrilling Western Conference action on Saturday. The Thunder are currently locked in a heated top-of-the-table race with the Suns and will know a slip-up against the Rockets will be costly. They’ll be looking to bounce back from the painful 124-122 loss against the Nuggets on Thursday morning, ultimately ending their seven-game winning streak. However, the Rockets won’t be pushovers, especially now that they are just 2.0 games behind Conference leaders, the Suns. They are riding on a two-game winning run, sweeping aside the Spurs 127-100 on Thursday. Houston means business this season.
