For the third year in a row, the Houston Rockets are going to be showcased on national television as part of the NBA’s Christmas Day lineup. With their exciting style of play and now Russell Westbrook joining the mix, it’s no surprise that the team will be front and center again on Wednesday as they take on the Golden State Warriors at 5 pm ET.
Dating back to their days as the San Diego Rockets, the franchise is 6-5 all-time on Christmas Day, and barring a miraculous effort by a severely undermanned Golden State team, should be 7-5 by Wednesday night.
