Preview:
The Rockets open as 9-point favourites here and I think they’re good value to win and cover. They had a disastrous loss in Charlotte last night, but this is a prime bounce back spot.
Russell Westbrook sat out last night due to rest and his return should really bolster the offence here. Houston have impressively won 70% of their home games this season, while Orlando are a poor 12-20 on the road.
Orlando are also really banged up here, likely entering this game without Fournier, Isaac, and Aminu. This really weakens them on both ends of the floor in a game where they’re already at a disadvantage. Coach Steve Clifford has also been battling some health concerns and may not be 100% here.
The Magic defence has been shaky lately and I don’t see how they cope with Houston’s small ball 5. This has the makings of a high-scoring affair, so I’m not too worried about laying 9 points here.
