The Houston Rockets (1-3) host Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert, and the Utah Jazz (3-0) on Thursday at Toyota Center, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
Led by promising talents such as Jalen Green, Kevin Porter Jr., and Christian Wood, the young Rockets are currently in the middle of a rough scheduling draw in which they’re facing off with many established NBA heavyweights. Houston is now on the third game of a seven-game stretch in which each opponent made the playoffs last season.
The good news for the Rockets is that they were relatively competitive in a pair of 10-point losses to Boston and Dallas to start this run. The bad news is that after Thursday, they begin a five-game road trip on the West coast — which could make this their most viable chance at an upset.
Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:
- Date: Thursday, Oct. 28
- Time: 7:00 p.m. Central
- TV Channel: AT&T SportsNet Southwest, NBA League Pass

Probable starting lineups

Projected lineups are based on each team’s official game notes.
For the Rockets, reserve forward Danuel House Jr. is listed as out on the team’s injury report after spraining his right foot during Tuesday’s game at Dallas. Also, as expected, five-time All-Star John Wall is sitting out as part of a mutually agreed-upon plan not to play this season.
For Utah, Rudy Gay is out as he recovers from a right heel injury. Bogdanovic and Miye Oni are each questionable with non-COVID illnesses, while Eric Paschall is questionable due to a facial infection.
