Rockets Seek Sixth Straight Win Against Bucks

The Houston Rockets aim for their sixth consecutive win as they face the Milwaukee Bucks, following a dominant 143-107 victory over the Chicago Bulls. In that game, Alperen Sengun recorded his second straight triple-double, and the Rockets showcased their offensive depth with seven players scoring in double figures. Houston's recent success has been fueled by strong defense and an effective fast-break strategy, averaging 22.4 fast-break points per game during their winning streak. Meanwhile, the Bucks have been struggling, with a recent loss to the Charlotte Hornets ending a two-game winning streak, and they are still missing key players like Khris Middleton and Damian Lillard. Concerns linger around superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo's future with the team, as trade speculation grows amid their poor start to the season. The Rockets have been linked to Antetokounmpo, given their substantial draft capital and young talent, which could potentially entice the Bucks to consider a rebuild.
