Houston Rockets @ Indiana Pacers Preview
The Indiana Pacers (34-25) host the Houston Rockets (37-24) in a matchup of two teams vying for playoff positioning in their respective conferences. The Pacers are coming off a dominant 127-112 win over the Chicago Bulls, while the Rockets are looking to bounce back after a 137-128 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Indiana has been strong at home this season with an 18-10 record, while Houston has struggled on the road recently, losing their last seven away games.
Key injuries could play a significant role in this game. The Rockets are dealing with a depleted roster, with Fred VanVleet, Dillon Brooks, Alperen Sengun, and Amen Thompson all listed as day-to-day. Meanwhile, the Pacers are relatively healthy, with only Bennedict Mathurin nursing a minor wrist injury. Indiana’s offensive efficiency, led by Tyrese Haliburton and Pascal Siakam, will be a key factor as they look to exploit Houston’s undermanned lineup.
