Coming off a wakeup call at home against the Spurs, the Houston Rockets will look to get back on track in one last preseason game before their season-opener on Oct. 24. Houston fell to 3-2 after a 128-114 loss to San Antonio that saw the Rockets give up 57.1 percent shooting and 58 points in the paint.
Mike D’Antoni has used the preseason to get a closer look at guys like Ben McLemore, Isaiah Hartenstein and Chris Clemons, who recently earned himself a two-way contract. Coach D’Antoni also experimented with starting Danuel House over Eric Gordon on Wednesday, which was one of the few things that went well.
