Houston Rockets vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction & Picks - NBA
by Erik Gibbs | in NBA Picks
The 2024-25 NBA season continues on Saturday with an intriguing Western Conference clash between the Houston Rockets and the Portland Trail Blazers at Moda Center in Portland. This game marks the conclusion of their three-game regular-season series, with both teams having claimed one victory apiece earlier in the season. The Rockets secured a dominant 116-88 home win on November 22, but the Trail Blazers responded the following day with a hard-fought 104-98 road victory. The Rockets have been in excellent form recently, winning six of their last eight games. However, their five-game winning streak came to an end last Thursday in a 132-127 road loss to the Sacramento Kings. Despite the defeat, the Rockets showed resilience, rallying from a 16-point deficit to nearly pull off a comeback. Jalen Green led the way with 28 points on 10-of-20 shooting, while Alperen Şengün contributed a double-double with 21 points, 10 rebounds, and four steals. Amen Thompson also made a significant impact, recording 20 points, 10 rebounds, and five assists. The Rockets shot an impressive 52% from the field but struggled defensively, allowing the Kings to dominate the second quarter with 35 points.

Our Houston Rockets vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction
The Trail Blazers have been struggling, losing seven of their last nine games, including their most recent four outings. They suffered a crushing defeat at home against the LA Clippers last Thursday, marking their third consecutive double-digit loss. Portland’s offense has been inconsistent, and their defense has been unable to contain opponents, as seen in their inability to keep pace with the Clippers throughout the game. Injury concerns continue to plague both teams. The Rockets remain shorthanded with Jabari Smith Jr. and Jock Landale unavailable, while the Trail Blazers will be without Deni Avdija. However, Jerami Grant’s status has been upgraded to questionable, which could provide a boost for Portland. Given the current trajectories of both teams, the Rockets appear to be in a better position to secure a victory. Houston’s offense has been firing on all cylinders, and their recent success provides confidence that they can bounce back from their loss to Sacramento. Conversely, Portland’s ongoing struggles and lack of defensive cohesion make it difficult to trust them in this matchup. The Rockets are well-equipped to capitalize on the Trail Blazers’ vulnerabilities and should cover with a strong road performance. Our prediction for Portland Trail Blazers vs Houston Rockets: Rockets to win and cover.
