The Houston Rockets play the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday. Tipoff is at 8:00 p.m. ET. Listen to the live radio broadcast or watch the live stream via the links provided below.
Brooklyn (39-33) turned their season around and now holds the fifth-best record in the Eastern Conference. They've won seven of their last 10 games, including two straight, helping Nets coach Jason Kidd to win his second Coach of the Month award this season.
Best of all for the Nets is the improving health of their roster. Nets guard Deron Williams, who missed time this season with an ankle injury, is regaining form and forwards Kevin Garnett and Andrei Kirilenko are expected to return at the end of the week.
"First part of the season was rough on us with injuries and everything that we went through, and it feels good," Williams said, according to ESPN. "It feels good to be able to turn it around."
Houston (49-23), meanwhile, had their five-game winning streak ended on Saturday by the Los Angeles Clippers. Injuries to center Dwight Howard and guard Patrick Beverley have taken two starters out of Houston's lineup, although Howard is officially listed as day-to-day.
"You can't use that an excuse," Rockets forward Chandler Parsons said. "Everybody goes through injuries."
Houston, currently with the fourth-best record in the Western Conference, is five games behind No. 2 Oklahoma City.
