What you need to know about the Rockets

Houston is coming off a successful five-game road trip, winning three of those contests. The Rockets had a chance to make it four wins in five games, but they came up just short in a 105-103 final at Golden State last Friday. They will be rested as they return home for a four-game homestand, as they have not played in four days. 

Center Christian Wood leads Houston with 17.5 points and 10.3 rebounds per game, while guard Eric Gordon is scoring 14.8 points. The Rockets are also getting a boost from rookie guard Jalen Green, who is averaging 14.4 points. They have covered the spread in four of their last five games. 

What you need to know about the Spurs

San Antonio was unable to completely erase a 15-point deficit in its 115-109 loss to Philadelphia on Sunday. The Spurs did get double-doubles from center Jakob Poeltl and guard Dejounte Murray, though. Murray scored 32 points, dished out 11 assists and grabbed 10 rebounds in a loss to Houston earlier this month. 

He leads the team with 19.3 points, 9.0 assists and 8.5 rebounds per game. Small forward Keldon Johnson is scoring 14.9 points, while shooting guard Derrick White is adding 14.4 points. The Spurs have covered in five of their last seven games against the Rockets.
