After Action Report
The Rockets fended off the Clippers 104-95. Every possession went the Rockets way. The Rockets are in a full-on tailspin; Rockets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it

- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Clippers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
