Rockets Analysis: Currently on a 6-game winning run
With a 6-game winning streak that is tied for the longest active streak with the Boston Celtics, the Rockets are among the hottest teams in the league right now. The Rockets have been far more reliable at the Toyota Center than they have been on the road. In front of the home crowd, they are 23-11, while as the visiting team, they are 10-24. Since head coach Ime Udoka took over, Houston’s defense has significantly improved, which has been the team’s best feature this season.

Alperen Sengun, the Turkish big man who has become a breakout star, is expected to miss the rest of the regular season.
