Editor of The Rockets Wire Ben DuBose joins Next Up to preview the Los Angeles Lakers entering the Toyota Center to take on the Houston Rockets tonight. DuBose begins by recapping the Rockets win on the road against the Charlotte Hornets on Friday, but also the loss to the Nets in Brooklyn on Saturday. However, a silver lining was guard Jalen Green scoring 36 points in three quarters against the Hornets. "He's got some momentum," DuBose said. With more teams focused on defending center Alperen Şengün, DuBose thinks the Rockets need to continue to be creative with offensive strategies. "Jalen is the key." The Rockets "did not have counters" against the Nets, but the Rockets have an opportunity to get back on track against the Lakers. DuBose also breaks down the 2024 NBA Draft and the Rockets' picks.
