Houston Rockets vs. Milwaukee Bucks Preview: How to Watch, Injury Reports, Lineups, More

The Houston Rockets will look to keep their red-hot streak going in their next game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

The Houston Rockets (13-9) will be up against one of the toughest opponents in the league in the Milwaukee Bucks (18-7) on Sunday night in the Fiserv Arena. The Rockets will be looking to get their sixth straight win.

In the Rocket's last game, they were able to get their second straight win against the Memphis Grizzlies with a score of 103-96. The team was able to get this win despite being down 29-14 at the end of the first quarter.

This was a key game for Dillon Brooks, as he had a great game against his former team. He finished with 26 points and seven rebounds, as well as the three-pointer that pretty much sealed the game. 

The Rockets will need another good game from Brooks as they will need all the help that they can get in Milwaukee. The Bucks are on a win streak of their own, and Giannis Antetokounmpo recently put up a career-high 64 points. So, the Rockets will need all hands-on deck if they want to keep their win streak alive.
