After Action Report

The Rockets squeaked past the Clippers 116-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
