Game Preview
On Monday at Toyota Center, the Houston Rockets (10-9) will play the San Antonio Spurs (3-18).

Amen Thompson, the fourth overall pick, who has been sidelined since November 1st due to an ankle injury, may also make a comeback.
The Houston Rockets, who have prevailed in 4 of their past 7 contests overall, are in decent form.

The Rockets shot only 42% from the field overall and only made 13 of 39 from 3-point range, but their defense was the key to this victory as they held Nikola Jokic of the Nuggets in check through the opening half and then went on a 40-point scoring spree within the third quarter to give the Nuggets their inaugural home loss of the year.
