What you need to know about the rockets
The Rockets lost 140-132 to the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday. Despite the loss, Houston put on a solid performance from center Alperen Sengun, who dropped a double-double with 33 points and 15 rebounds and dropped six dimes.
It was Houston’s 11th straight loss and their 16th loss in their last 17 games. The young Rockets are really struggling on offense, finishing last in offensive efficiency, field goal percentage and turnovers per game. Kevin Porter Jr., who leads the team in assists and is second on points, has missed the last three games with a foot injury and is a questionable tonight.
What you need to know about the hornets
Meanwhile, Monday’s matchup between Charlotte and the Boston Celtics wasn’t a total blowout, but with Charlotte losing 130-118 at home, it was damn close to turning into one. The Hornets’ loss was not to be seen in the performances of center Mason Plumlee, who notched a double-double with 19 points and 12 boards alongside seven assists, and power forward Jalen McDaniels, who shot 5-for-7 from downtown and finished on target darken with 26 points.
While Houston has the worst offense in the league, Charlotte isn’t far ahead with the second-worst offense in the NBA. It has bottom three grades in offensive efficiency, field goal percentage, and three point percentage. During the team’s current five-game streak, Charlotte’s average loss margin is 11 points. Third-top scorer Kelly Oubre Jr. (hand) is out while veteran Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is doubtful.
