Our Portland Trail Blazers vs Houston Rockets Prediction
The hosts could potentially be without two of their top three-point shooters in Jerami Grant and Deni Avdija. With another one of their top scoring threats in Anfernee Simons coming off a zero-point performance, their scoring struggles could well continue here.
After giving up 132 points to the Kings on Thursday, we’re expecting an improved performance by Houston on the defensive side of the ball. The Rockets boast one of the league’s best defenses and shouldn’t have too much trouble shutting down this misfiring Trail Blazers squad. Our Portland Trail Blazers vs Houston Rockets prediction: Trail Blazers team total under 107.5.
