Game Preview
The Houston Rockets delivered a near-perfect performance in the first of a back-to-back, dominating the Chicago Bulls 143-107 on Sunday. With a season-high scoring effort and largest margin of victory, Houston rested its starters, keeping all under 29 minutes, ahead of their Monday clash with the Milwaukee Bucks.
Alperen Sengun led the way with his second consecutive triple-double (20 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists), while Fred VanVleet contributed 28 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists. Jalen Green added 18 efficient points, and Amen Thompson chipped in with a double-double off the bench.
This marked the Rockets’ fifth straight win and seventh in their last eight games, as they continue to thrive on defense and transition scoring. Averaging 22.4 fast-break points during the streak, coach Ime Udoka credited their success to defensive intensity.
"When we get stops and turnovers, it leads to easy transition baskets," Udoka said. "That’s been a major strength lately."
Meanwhile, the Bucks are coming off a narrow 115-114 loss to Charlotte, snapping a two-game winning streak. Despite missing Khris Middleton all season and Damian Lillard for the past three games, Milwaukee has shown resilience, with Giannis Antetokounmpo averaging 33.7 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 5.8 assists over the past six games.
Antetokounmpo emphasized the team’s commitment to defense and effort. "Players are stepping up and competing, knowing defense is key to winning games," he said.
The Rockets aim to continue their momentum, while the Bucks look to bounce back, making this matchup one to watch.
