Betting on the Houston Rockets
- Regular Season Record: 13-45
The Rockets are currently situated at the bottom of the Western Conference standings, which highlights the difficult season the Texas-based franchise has endured.
Houston has had the worst field goal percentage this season, shooting at just 45.1% from the field. This is partly due to the overall lack of experience within the roster. As a result, the team’s objective is to provide more playing time for these young players to aid in their development and progress further.
Betting on the Portland Trail Blazers
- Regular Season Record: 28-31
The Portland Trail Blazers have not been performing well, and to make matters worse, they will now have to deal with the absence of Anfernee Simons.who just before the All-Star Game break suffered a severe ankle injury – it’s not yet known exactly how long he will be out of action.
Portland is 1.5 games out of a spot in the Play-In tournament and will need Damian Lillard more than ever to carry them to a playoff spot; this is something that won’t be easy considering how many teams are ahead of them in the standings.
JefeBet Prediction
The Trail Blazers have defeated Houston in their two previous meetings this season, and both times they won by more than 10 points.
Even though Portland is not at its best, it is hard to imagine that they would pass up the opportunity to beat the worst team in the West playing at home.That’s why we at JefeBet are leaning towards Damian Lillard and company in this game.
