The Houston Rockets entered Sunday, March 31, with 11 consecutive victories and a 13-1 record in March, which leads the NBA.
Regardless of Sunday’s outcome at home versus Dallas, the Rockets (38-35) will finish with the league’s best monthly record. It’s their first time with that distinction since Houston’s incredible 2017-18 season, which resulted in the best record (65-17) in team history.
Thanks to that success, Houston is back in the mix for a postseason spot in the Western Conference. They were six games back when the winning streak originally started on March 8, and now they are within a game and will be multiple games above .500 entering April.
Even after losing star center Alperen Sengun to a potentially season-ending ankle injury on March 10, the Rockets haven’t skipped a beat, thanks in large part to a sustained breakout by Jalen Green.
In still images, here’s a look back at some of the defining shots from a most memorable March 2024 for the Houston Rockets.
