Tuesday’s NBA action will conclude with a matchup between the Houston Rockets and Portland Trail Blazers. The Blazers will be given the home court nod in their third game inside the Orlando bubble.
The Rockets are coming off a massive win against the Bucks, vying for playoff seeding. For Portland, it’s win or go home. They sit in a tight race for the final playoff spot in the West and must-win.
This game is a clash of styles. Houston has become known for their small ball. They are starting Robert Covington (6′ 7″) at the center position. Portland’s hope rests in center Jusuf Nurkic and young power forward Zach Collins. Two bigs the team missed for nearly the whole season.
