The Houston Rockets continue a five-game road trip with Thursday’s visit to defending Western Conference champion Phoenix. If you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
Led by the likes of Jalen Green, Kevin Porter Jr., and Christian Wood, the young Rockets (1-6) enter with five straight losses. However, they could be more dangerous than their lowly record looks, since the competition has been steep — and they’re coming off Tuesday’s strong performance in Los Angeles that nearly resulted in a win over the Lakers.
As usual, the Suns (3-3) are led by a veteran backcourt of perennial All-Stars in Chris Paul and Devin Booker. It will be yet another tough test for Green and Porter, who are just 19 and 21 years old, respectively.
Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:
- Date: Thursday, Nov. 4

Probable starting lineups
Houston Rockets (1-6)
- Guard: Kevin Porter Jr.
- Guard: Jalen Green
- Forward: Jae’Sean Tate
- Forward: Christian Wood
- Center: Alperen Sengun
Phoenix Suns (3-3)
- Guard: Chris Paul
- Guard: Devin Booker
- Forward: Mikal Bridges
- Forward: Jae Crowder
- Center: Javale McGee
Projected lineups are based on each team’s official game notes.
Reserve forward Danuel House Jr. will miss a third consecutive game due to a right foot sprain, while Daniel Theis is questionable with soreness in his right great toe. Theis missed Tuesday’s game with the injury, which allowed Sengun to make the first start of his young NBA career.
Houston might catch an injury break in the other direction, since Suns center Deandre Ayton is questionable with a right lower leg contusion. He did not play in Phoenix’s last game due to the injury. Reserve guard Cameron Payne, who has missed four straight games for the Suns, is questionable with a right hamstring strain. Dario Šarić is out due to the ACL injury he suffered during the 2021 NBA Finals.
