Where to watch Rockets vs Bulls game?
The last time Houston faced a healthy Chicago club, they stopped a 15-game losing run. With a win over the short-handed Detroit Pistons, the young Rockets got their road trip off to a strong start. The Chicago Bulls are eager to resume their season after having their last two games delayed. Each NBA franchise has its own point of view.
You can watch the game on the NBA App if you have an NBA League Pass membership, and it will also be aired nationally on TNT. Let’s go through the most current team news as well as our Dream11 predictions for the Houston Rockets vs. Chicago Bulls clash.
Team news and injuries
Jalen Green (left hamstring strain) and Kevin Porter Jr. (left thigh contusion) are both listed as out for the Rockets. Both, though, plan to return within the following week. Armoni Brooks (left ankle sprain) is doubtful after missing Saturday’s game.
Because it is the second game of a back-to-back for the Bulls, they will not give an injury/status report until midday Monday. According to the Chicago Tribune, Zach LaVine, Ayo Dosunmu, Troy Brown Jr., Alize Johnson, and Matt Thomas are all out due to health and safety rules, while Patrick Williams is still out with a left wrist ligament rupture.
Rockets vs Bulls preview
The Houston Rockets have returned to earth after stunning the whole NBA with a seven-game winning streak. They are only 2-4 in their past six games, but they are playing better basketball than they were earlier in the season. For the Houston Rockets to regain their winning ways, they must reduce their turnovers once more. They were able to limit their mistakes throughout their winning streak, but they have reverted to their old ways.
The Chicago Bulls hadn’t played an NBA game in what seemed like years. The Bulls’ return to play couldn’t have come at a better time than when they faced the star-studded but short-handed Los Angeles Lakers and LeBron James. The Chicago Bulls ended a two-game losing run by reverting to the tactics that made them such a difficult team to beat this season.
Rockets vs Bulls Head to Head record
The Bulls and the Houston Rockets have played 142 regular-season games, with the Bulls winning 70 and the Rockets winning 72. The Rockets have won three of their past five games versus the Bulls.
