Rockets vs. Knicks: Lineups, injury reports and broadcast info for Thursday

After a blowout loss in Cleveland on Wednesday, the short-handed Rockets will try to bounce back at home against Julius Randle and the New York Knicks. If you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
