Match preview: Brooklyn Nets vs Houston Rockets

The Brooklyn Nets will face the Houston Rockets on 5th April 2022(USA), as the race to the playoffs tightens up with less than 5 games left for every team in the regular season.

Brooklyn Nets need to get results in their favor and this is just the right opportunity for them ahead of the playoffs as they will be up against a Houston team who is tanking to get a better draft pick to build around their sensational young players like Jalen Green. Alperen Sengun and Kevin Porter Jr.

KD and co. will look to get their groove back to qualify for the playoffs through the play-in tournament which is their biggest hurdle as of now.

The current record of both the teams:

  • The Brooklyn Nets are currently having a record of 40-38 and are the 10th seed in the East
  • The Houston Rockets are currently having a record of 20-59 and are the 14th seed in the West
