After Action Report
The Rockets fended off the Pacers 108-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. Rockets' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Pacers. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
