Rockets' late push jeopardizing valuable draft lottery odds

This was quite the damaging week to the Rockets' lottery odds with the team going 3-2 including a pair of wins in Portland against a team with a lineup that might not even be a sure thing in the G League. The Rockets started off the week with a 122-98 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies on Sunday and then beat the Washington Wizards 115-97 on Monday. On Wednesday, they lost to a Dallas Mavericks team playing without Luka Doncic. And on Friday and Saturday, they beat a Blazers team not even fielding an NBA lineup two times, 125-106, and then 115-98.
