Can the Houston Rockets recover from an epic nine-second meltdown?
Running record: 7-3
A Western Conference showdown between two exciting teams, the Houston Rockets visit the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The Rockets have struggled recently, dropping four straight games due to key absences, including Alperen Şengün and star point guard Fred VanVleet. Şengün recently returned, and Houston seemed poised to snap their skid—only to suffer an epic meltdown in the final nine seconds of their last game against Brooklyn.
Meanwhile, the Timberwolves have been inconsistent despite a stacked roster. They suffered back-to-back two-point losses before bouncing back with a blowout win over the Bulls.
For this matchup, I like the Houston Rockets to get back on track. I believe they’ve made the necessary adjustments and will rely on their defense to secure the win. With the total set at 213.5, I expect a low-scoring battle—one that should favor Houston if they dictate the pace.
Current Odds:
•Spread: Houston Rockets -1.5 | Minnesota Timberwolves +1.5
•Moneyline: Houston Rockets 1.77 | Minnesota Timberwolves 2.03
•Total: Over 213.5 | Under 213.5
