So far, the Rockets are 0-2 in the second game of a back-to-back, losing to the Mavericks and the Utah Jazz (Dec. 1). Their schedule through the early portion of the season has been relatively easy, having faced just seven teams that currently have a top-six seed in each conference.

The Rockets struggled to score outside of Durant, who led the way with 27 points. Amen Thompson, who posted a season-high 31 points in Friday's win over Phoenix, had just 7 on the night. The guard only scored one point in the first half and didn't notch his first field goal until midway through the third quarter.
