Houston Rockets vs. OKC Thunder Injury Report

The Houston Rockets have seen both highs and lows during the 2024-25 NBA season.

A five-game win-streak here, a six-game losing streak there. It’s shown both adaptability and conformity through 60 games. But since the All-Star break, the team has been a bit spotty.

Houston has bested Playoffs-bound teams in Minnesota and Milwaukee, as well as San Antonio, but has also fallen in games it likely should’ve won against Utah and Sacramento. The most recent was an uncharacteristic 10-point loss to the Kings, despite being fully healthy for the first time in a while.

Now, the Rockets will need to beat the white-hot Thunder to get back in the win column. Just last night, the Thunder scored a blistering 146 points en route to their fifth victory in six tries.

Here are the injury reports for both teams ahead of Monday’s matchup:

Houston Rockets injuries:

Steven Adams — Questionable: Left ankle soreness

Dillon Brooks — Questionable: Right knee contusion

Tari Eason — Questionable: Left lower leg management
