The Houston Rockets (39-24) host the Toronto Raptors (36-27) in an NBA 2025-26 matchup on Tuesday, March 10, at Toyota Center.
Houston and Toronto have met once this season, with the Rockets securing a dominant 139-121 victory in October. The Rockets made 57.5% of their shots, including 43.3% from the three-point line. All five Houston starters scored in double digits, with Kevin Durant's 31 leading the way.
But the Rockets have been on lukewarm waters recently, having lost to the San Antonio Spurs, 145-120. Their defense collapsed, allowing the Spurs to shoot 58% from the field.
Durant and Amen Thompson both had 23 points in the loss, while Jabari Smith Jr. and Reed Sheppard chipped in 17 markers apiece.
The Rockets have lost two of their last three games. Fred VanVleet, Steven Adams, and Jae'Sean Tate are listed as out.
On the other hand, the Raptors enter on a high note after a commanding 122-92 rout of the Dallas Mavericks at home. Eight Raptors players scored in double digits, including all their starters. RJ Barrett led all scorers with 31, while Scottie Barnes chipped in 17 markers.
The win halts Toronto's two-game skid. Starting big man Jakob Poetl is currently listed as day-to-day due to illness.

Our Houston Rockets vs Toronto Raptors Prediction
The Rockets and Raptors traded a high-scoring affair in their lone meeting this season, so expect more of the same on Tuesday. Houston took that game, but they're on unsteady waters recently, having lost three of their last five contests.
Kevin Durant and the Rockets are still the favorites to win on Tuesday, but expect Scottie Barnes and the Raptors to put up a fight. Our prediction for the Houston Rockets vs Toronto Raptors match is: Raptors (+5.5) cover the spread.
