Houston at Memphis

The teams have met three times this season and Houston has won and covered all three with an average margin of victory of 13.3 points. The Rockets bounced back from a tough road trip with a controversial 105-103 win over New York on Monday when Aaron Holiday had 18 points, capped by two free throws with less than a second remaining after a disputed foul by Jalen Brunson on a 3-point shot.
