With Sunday's win at Golden State, the Rockets secured a top-three placement in the 2025 Western Conference playoff field and are on the verge of landing the No. 2 seed.
The top-four teams in the West (standings) will all have home-court advantage in their first-round series, which means that Houston will open up its playoff run at home on either Saturday, April 19, or Sunday, April 20. The Rockets are 29-11 at Toyota Center this season.
Teams with home-court advantage would play the first, second, fifth, and seventh games of a best-of-seven series at home.
