The Houston Rockets (15-51) will host the Chicago Bulls (30-36) on Saturday. The Rockets beat the Bulls 133-118 as a seven-point dog on December 26.
After losing six straight games, the Bulls are 3-3 in their last six. The season has been disappointing as Chicago finds itself 11th in the East, half a game behind the Wizards. With a core of DeMar DeRozan (24.9 ppg), Zach LaVine (24.7 ppg), and Nikola Vucevic (17.7 ppg, 11.3 rebounds), better things were expected.
