Wednesday’s Locked on Rockets podcast with host Jackson Gatlin and analyst Ben DuBose answers listener questions about the surging Rockets, who have won four straight games and eight of their last 10.
Subjects include Ben McLemore’s role moving forward; the best and worst potential playoff matchups; rotation choices to be made by head coach Mike D’Antoni; the likelihood of a contract extension for P.J. Tucker; and expectations for newcomers DeMarre Carroll and Jeff Green.
Closing topics are what would constitute a successful season for the Rockets; the impact of Russell Westbrook on James Harden; and favorite games and moments of the 2019-20 season to date. Tune in:
The Rockets (37-20) resume play Wednesday night with a home matchup versus the Memphis Grizzlies (28-29) and guard Ja Morant, seen by most as the NBA’s Rookie of the Year frontrunner. Tip-off from Toyota Center is at 7:00 p.m. Central, with the game broadcast nationally on ESPN.
