Houston Rockets vs San Antonio Spurs prediction

The Houston Rockets have quietly won 4 of their last 5 games, and they're easily the better team here, even with Sengun being ruled out for the season. The Rockets beat the Spurs by 13 points last week, and they've won 4 of the last 5 games against them overall. The Rockets are a profitable 35-28-1 ATS on the year. The San Antonio Spurs just aren't a team I'm excited to back, as there's just not much intriguing on this roster outside of Wembanyama. Give me the Rockets in a comfortable in-state victory.
