Houston @ Los Angeles
Current Records: Houston 16-53; Los Angeles 39-30
What to Know
The Houston Rockets haven't won a game against the Los Angeles Lakers since Sept. 4 of last year, but they'll be looking to end the drought on Wednesday. Houston is on the road again on Wednesday and plays against Los Angeles at 10:30 p.m. ET May 12 at Staples Center. The Rockets are hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 116.51 points per contest.
Houston ended up a good deal behind the Portland Trail Blazers when they played on Monday, losing 140-129. Houston's loss shouldn't obscure the performances of power forward Kelly Olynyk, who had 21 points and six assists along with eight rebounds, and small forward Kenyon Martin Jr., who had 15 points in addition to nine boards.
Meanwhile, it may have taken overtime to finish the job, but Los Angeles ultimately got the result they were hoping for on Tuesday with a 101-99 win over the New York Knicks. The Lakers' center Andre Drummond filled up the stat sheet, dropping a double-double on 18 boards and 16 points.
The Rockets are expected to lose this next one by 9. They are currently three-for-three against the spread in their most recent games, however, a trend bettors might want to take into account.
Los Angeles' victory lifted them to 39-30 while Houston's defeat dropped them down to an irreparable 16-53. We'll see if Los Angeles can repeat their recent success or if Houston bounces back and reverse their fortune.
