Winners of their last four games and seven of their past eight, the Pacers (7-4) look to continue their hot streak against one of the Western Conference’s toughest foes, the Houston Rockets. After a dominating performance against the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Blue & Gold have a rare two-day break in their schedule before they take on the Rockets at Toyota Center on Friday night.
The Rockets (7-3) will arguably be Indiana's toughest opponent to date. This will be the first time this season that the Blue & Gold will take on a team with a winning record.
