The Houston Rockets are turning the page quickly as they head to the City of Brotherly Love to take on the Philadelphia 76ers.

The Sixers are coming off of a loss on Sunday against the Los Angeles Clippers, so the two days of rest should do them some good. However, they have numerous injuries to key players, including All-Stars Joel Embiid and Paul George, both of whom won't suit up for the Sixers tonight.

While the Rockets are tired coming off of last night's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, they might have a shot to pull this one out if their depth can shine through and grab a win.

Here's a look at what you need to know:
