The Houston Rockets are hoping to sweep their first back-to-back of the season as they visit Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs at the Frost Bank Center.

The Rockets are coming off their first win of the season last night after beating the Memphis Grizzlies 128-108. Houston had to overcome a 12-point deficit in order to come out on top.

Meanwhile, the Spurs had the chance to face off against the other Lone Star State rival in the Dallas Mavericks in their season opener, but they couldn't beat Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving and the Mavs.

Now, the Rockets and Spurs meet up for a chance to start their rivalry for the season, and both teams are extremely hungry to grab a win and set the tone.
