Rockets at Thunder: Wednesday’s stream, lineups, injury reports and broadcast info (Dec. 1)

The young Houston Rockets have won three straight games, and they are now 4-5 at home on the 2021-22 NBA season. But away from Toyota Center, where they are currently 0-11, it’s a very different story.

No opponent better illustrates the striking disparity than Oklahoma City, which hosts the Rockets on Wednesday night. During two games at Houston, the Rockets are 2-0 versus the Thunder while outscoring them by an average of 23 points per game. But in the one game between the teams at Oklahoma City this season, the Thunder won by 12 points.

With the calendar turning to December, can the Rockets finally break through on the road — particularly since they’re facing another young and rebuilding team? Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:
