Jalen Green had 29 points while Alperen Sengun scored 20 to lead the Rockets to a 111-104 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday. Houston extended their winning streak to four games. "We got back to guarding at a pretty high level," head coach Ime Udoka said. With Jabari Smith Jr. and Fred VanVleet returning to the lineup, the Rockets have been given a boost as the conclusion of the regular season approaches in a tightly contested race for spots 2-5 in the Western Conference. "The luck of being totally healthy throughout the season is unrealistic," Udoka said. "That's the blessing that we have with our team is that we have a lot of interchangeable parts." Houston has seen success in rolling out bigger lineups, intermixing Smith, Sengun and Steven Adams. "Double bigs have been really good for us," Udoka said. "It comes down to a war of will with the bigs and smalls out there and who can take advantage of what." Adams and Suns center Mason Plumlee were ejected before halftime of Wednesday's matchup after the pair wrestled each other to the court. Adams' presence under the basket on both ends of the floor is a major factor in the Rockets leading the league in offensive rebounds, averaging 14.7 per game this season. "In order to be a really good offensive rebounder like [Adams] does, you have to have a great sense of where the ball is going to come off the rim. But it starts with his strength and wedging guys under, carving out that space for himself. A lot of times, he's going to get the ball, but also he commands a double, triple team on the glass, and he allows other guys to clean up and get those opportunities as well," Udoka said. The Rockets host the Mavericks on Friday in the first of a back-to-back as the Bulls will be in the Toyota Center the following night.

As the start of the 2025 NBA Playoffs approaches, the Rockets are currently the fifth-best team in the Western Conference. However, Houston is on a three-game losing streak, and other conference foes are inching closer in the standings, threatening the Rockets' postseason position. The Golden State Warriors have gone 9-2 since trading for Jimmy Butler in early February, and the Minnesota Timberwolves are regrouping with injured players returning to the lineup. The Warriors are the sixth-best team in the Western Conference and are within three games of overtaking the Rockets for the No. 5 seed. Golden State holds the season tiebreaker over the Rockets. With the Warriors and Timberwolves on their heels, can the Rockets string together some wins to distance themselves in the standings ahead of their first playoff appearance since 2020?

Houston was without Sengun, Amen Thompson, Dillon Brooks, Fred VanVleet and Tari Eason in that contest. "All these back-to-backs have added up," Udoka said. The Rockets have the most games by a team on no rest this season, with 15 games. "Until you prove yourself in the league, you'll get a favorable schedule eventually." The Rockets will look to get back into the win column when they face the Pelicans in New Orleans on Thursday.
