Defense was supposed to be Houston's strength, as it was a year ago. Yet it's thriving on the other end of the floor.

The Houston Rockets have a promising roster, and surprisingly, the starting lineup made history as all of them bring size above 6 ft.

The Dallas Mavericks take to the road for the first time this season to do battle with the Rockets’ top-ranked offense

Houston isn't in the market to make any long-term trades at the moment. But if one came along, it could be with a team that desperately needs something back.

The Boston Celtics and Houston Rockets have announced their first fives for Saturday night's encounter between the two proud squads, both of whom have righted the ship after rocky starts to their respective 2025-26 NBA seasons.

After struggling mightily last season at the line, Rockets coaches had players promise in writing to practice free throws. It's paying off so far this season.
