The good news for the Hawks is that, unless he’s in Game 7 vs. Milwaukee mode, Kevin Durant might rest soon. – 8:11 PM

Rockets forward Danuel House Jr., who sprained his ankle at practice on Tuesday, still wearing a walking boot. Would appear he will not be back any time soon. Rockets shorthandedness getting conspicuous. – 8:03 PM

Tonight is the 12th game Garrison Mathews has been active for the Rockets this season. He can be active for 38 more games after this one before the team has to convert his 2-way deal – 8:02 PM

Bunch of Bucks fans around Toyota Center. Not in Spurs or Lakers numbers but ample and conspicuous. Respect to the (not a frontrunner) guy in the Moncrief jersey near the baseline. – 7:56 PM

About 15 minutes away from tipoff here in Atlanta, where the Nets will have their hands full guarding not just Trae Young, but a dynamic Hawks offense that has 7 players averaging at least 9 PPG.
Interested to see if Blake Griffin gets PT after making a cameo in Houston. – 7:25 PM

With Bucks playing a full-sized lineup, Rockets will go back to theirs “at some point.” Silas would not say if that point would be the opening tip. – 6:19 PM

I’m looking forward to getting another look at Patrick Baldwin Jr. tonight in Boulder, as UW-Milwaukee takes on Colorado.
Through 5 games, Baldwin is averaging 17.4 points and 8.0 rebounds per game, while shooting 40% from three and 86.7% from the line. pic.twitter.com/99Bxm6qMIz – 6:19 PM

Vernon Maxwell to take tonight’s First Shot before Rockets-Bucks as part of the Rockets’ Friday Flashback series. Former Suns center Alvin Adams to sing The National Anthem.
Wait, being told that the Suns center was Alvan Adams. Alvin Adams sings. – 5:10 PM

Nikola Jokić has led the NBA in touches per game in each of the last four seasons.
He’s averaging a 31.1% usage rate, which is by far a career high.
I’m really worried about burnout. It’s a negative way to look at his career, but what he’s doing reminds me of Houston Harden. – 3:47 PM
