Houston Rockets (38-23) and Portland Trail Blazers (30-33) will clash in the Western Conference on Friday night at the Toyota Center. The Rockets will look to bounce back from their disappointing 113-115 overtime loss to the Warriors on Thursday night. Kevin Durant’s late 3-pointer wasn’t enough to rescue the team after Horford made the basket for the visitors to make it 113-115. This result leaves the Rockets a game behind the third-placed Timberwolves.

The Trail Blazers, on the other hand, managed to bounce back from their two-game losing run with a comfortable 114-122 win over the Grizzlies. Jrue Holiday and Jerami Grant were unplayable in this fixture, contributing 35 and 30 points, respectively. Another win against the Rockets will solidify their push to make the postseason. The Trail Blazers are 10th in the West, 7.5 games behind the sixth-placed Lakers.
