The Houston Rockets (11-9) will play their first of two straight games against the Memphis Grizzlies (6-16) on Wednesday night in the Toyota Center. The Rockets will be looking to get their fourth straight twin in this game.

In the Rockets' last game, they were able to beat Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs 93-82. The biggest factor in the win was the great play from Tari Eason coming off the bench. He led the team in points and rebounds, finishing with 18 points and 14 boards.

This came after he was listed as questionable with an upper respiratory infection. But he played through and had one of the better games of his young career. The Rockets would love to have more games like that from him going forward.

Despite the Grizzlies getting off to their slowest start in years, they are absolutely not to be underestimated. Jaren Jackson Jr. is coming off of a 41-point performance in the Grizzlies' last game against the Dallas Mavericks, and Desmond Bane is playing the best basketball of his young career. If the Rockets want to secure the win, they will make sure to keep these two in check.
