After going 0-3 in December on the second game of back-to-backs, the Rockets are 3-0 in January — and elite performances by 37-year-old Kevin Durant continue to be the biggest reason.
With Thursday’s win at Atlanta, Houston (29-17) remains at No. 4 in the Western Conference.
Hosted by Ben DuBose and Dave Hardisty, our “ClutchFans Live” postgame recap breaks down all the key takeaways. Topics include a strong defensive showing against the Hawks; encouraging signs from Durant, Clint Capela, and Jabari Smith Jr.; and a sluggish night from Alperen Sengun.
Friday’s show also looks ahead to next week’s in-season trade deadline and what it might look like for the Rockets, particularly after losing Steven Adams to a season-ending ankle injury.
