Rockets vs. Thunder: Lineups, injury reports and broadcast info for Wednesday

The Houston Rockets host Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday night, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

The Rockets return to the Toyota Center after a road-trip to Detroit, where Houston pulled out a 117-114 victory. In the first matchup between the Rockets and Thunder this season, Jalen Green went shot-for-shot with Gilgeous-Alexander in a 118-105 Houston win.

Green will be unavailable for Wednesday’s game with a calf issue, however. Gilgeous-Alexander, who was arguably snubbed as an All-Star starter in the Western Conference, is averaging 30.9 points per game, the fifth-best mark in the league.
