The Houston Rockets headed into last night's game losers of six in a row and 10 of their last 11 games. They faced off against the Minnesota Timberwolves, winners of three in a row. Anthony Edwards was questionable the previous two days heading into the game after taking a hard fall against the Milwaukee Bucks. Initially, Edwards said he wouldn't play Sunday vs. the Rockets but ultimately could play in the game.
The Rockets went with their regular starting lineup of Kevin Porter Jr, Jalen Green, Eric Gordon, Jabari Smith and Alperen Sengun.
