With a sweep in Salt Lake City, the Rockets have set themselves up to clinch the series tonight with a win against the Jazz in front of their home fans.
Utah has a steep mountain to climb, having to win three consecutive contests against Houston, two of which must come on the road. The odds are slanted in Houston’s favor, but Houston knows that the job is not yet complete.
The Rockets don’t want to head back to Utah for a Game 6 on Thursday, so tonight is a crucial game for not just the Jazz, the team trying to escape elimination, but for the Rockets too.
Projected Starters:
Utah: Donovan Mitchell, Royce O’Neale, Joe Ingles, Jae Crowder, Rudy Gobert
Houston: Chris Paul, James Harden, Trevor Ariza, P.J. Tucker, Clint Capela
