2024 NBA Preseason Picks & Predictions: Rockets vs. Thunder
Check out our top NBA preseason picks and predictions for Wednesday’s game.
Rockets vs. Thunder
Houston's starting lineup has a lot of potential. Cam Whitmore could also be the Rockets’ Sixth Man of the Year. The former Villanova star added 17 points in 19 minutes for Houston against the Jazz last time out. Yet, the Rockets still lost to the Jazz, 122-113, in the first preseason game. Ultimately, there are a lot of notable names on the Rockets' bench. Those guys just need to develop before they'll make a massive impact. On the other hand, the Thunder played Chet Holmgren just nine minutes and didn't play some of their other starters. But they still knocked off the Sputs on the road behind Ajay Mitchell's 19 and Dillon Jones' 17 off the bench. Oklahoma City has a knack for finding young talent out of nowhere. Take the Thunder at -4.5 (-115).
Pick: Thunder -4.5 (-115)
