Latest news and updates about the Rockets
I was ready to go nuclear. I was resisting urges. Fighting demons. I was ready to say Alperen Sengun and Amen Thompson can’t play together. Let’s be honest – it isn’t a clean fit. You don’t look at these two guys and think “synergy”. The paint is as crowded as a public beach the day […]
Dear Steven Adams, When you became a Houston Rocket in 2024, I was ecstatic. I had enjoyed following you since I was a 12-year-old kid watching the Rockets and Oklahoma City Thunder playoff series in 2017. I followed you to New Orleans and Memphis, always cheering for you. On that February afternoon two years ago […]
The Atlanta Hawks squared off against the Houston Rockets on January 29 at State Farm Arena, and their outing didn’t seem to go the way they wanted it to. The Hawks were fresh off a win against the Boston Celtics, defeating them 117-106, and the Rockets recently lost to the San Antonio Spurs, but Houston […]
What feats of strength will Cooper Flagg perform next? Find out when the Dallas Mavericks (19-29) visit the Houston Rockets (29-17) on Saturday at the Toyota Center, with tipoff scheduled for 7:30 p.m. We can confidently say that, because as of the NBA’s 4:30 p.m. injury report on Friday, Flagg is no longer listed with […]
The Houston Rockets could use an on-ball facilitating guard. Everybody talks about it. By all intents and purposes, Rafael Stone and co. are trying to address that need by the trade deadline. It seems clear that they’ve been working the phones, at the very least. Lately they’ve been engaged in trade talks with the Chicago […]
The Rockets, as perhaps an oracular punishment for blowing a lead against the Spurs the night before, and getting embarrassingly run off the court to close that game, were sent out on the road to Atlanta the very next night. There was little doubt that the Rockets would in fact play this game, but considerable […]

Coming off a disappointing loss to the New Orleans Pelicans, the Spurs took two days off before traveling to Houston to take on the Rockets. What followed was a tale of two halves. The first half consisted of the Rockets shooting the lights out and the Spurs bricking their shots with a side of turnovers. […]
I was tired before this game even started. I had just spent two straight days in 10 hours of meetings, and I was mentally done. It was my department’s annual meeting at work, and usually it’s a “destination” event. Sometimes it’s in San Antonio — yes to that! It’s my hometown, an easy drive from […]
Why are we talking about trade rumors? How many of these articles… Oops. Sorry. Thought I was in the comments section. Look. It’s trade season. There will be trades. There will be trade discussions. If you’re someone who gets irrationally furious at the mere mention of an NBA trade (a surprisingly common cohort), the internet […]

The Houston Rockets head to Georgia to take on the Atlanta Hawks in the second game of a back-to-back for both teams. Atlanta was in Boston last night while the Rockets were at home against the Spurs. Atlanta has already made their big move for the trade deadline, sending Trae Young to Washington for C.J. […]
The San Antonio Spurs spent much of Wednesday night searching for their footing, trailing early and struggling to slow Houston’s tempo. By the final buzzer, they had imposed their will, turning a shaky start into a dominant 111–99 road victory over the Rockets at Toyota Center. San Antonio overcame a double-digit first-half deficit by tightening […]
The Houston Rockets came into Thursday night’s game boasting the NBA’s best home record at 15-3. Early in the matchup against the Spurs it looked as if the Rockets would be cruising their way to a 16th home win. The Rockets shot nearly 50-percent from the field in the first half. The ball movement was […]

Tonight’s Spurs vs Rockets I-10 showdown at the Toyota Center is a massive divisional clash with both jockeying for playoff positioning. The Spurs (31-15) arrive as one of the West’s biggest success stories this season, led by the impossible-to-miss Victor Wembanyama and a backcourt fueled by De’Aaron Fox. They’re looking to shake off a recent stumble against the Pelicans and prove they’re ready for a deep playoff run. Across the court, the Rockets (28-16) have turned their home floor...
The Houston Rockets’ offensive philosophy is to bully opponents on the glass. Buy and large, it works. The more scoring opportunities one gets, the higher likelihood that they’ll score. Especially put-back opportunities around the rim or open kick-out threes. Steven Adams has been a big part of that, as he leads the league in offensive […]

The San Antonio Spurs come into this game off a tough loss in which they took the New Orleans Pelicans lightly (sound familiar?) and despite a furious comeback were unable to get the win at home. They’ve had two days to stew over that loss and get on a plane for a quick trip to […]
Per Shams Charania: The San Antonio Spurs have three players on the 2026 NBA Rising Stars roster. Reigning NBA Rookie of the Year Stephon Castle will represent the NBA Sophomores. He’ll play alongside Matas Buzelis (Bulls), Donovan Clingan (Trail Blazers), Kyshawn George (Wizards), Ajay Mitchell (Thunder), Alex Sarr (Wizards), Reed Sheppard (Rockets), Cam Spencer (Grizzlies), […]
This is the sort of game the Rockets should win going away. The Memphis Grizzlies, shorthanded as almost always, and without Ja Morant, as per usual, should be the sort of team the Rockets beat. Not that they’re a bad team, or have bad players, they’re one of the deeper teams in the NBA, full […]
