Bulls vs. Rockets Game Info
Chicago Bulls (13-16, 7-7 Away) vs. Houston Rockets (11-17, 5-6 Home)
Date: Monday, Feb. 22, 2021
Time: 8 p.m. EST
Venue: Toyota Center — Houston, Texas
The Bulls are on a nice little stretch, winning three of their past four games. The team is also gradually getting healthier, with center Wendell Carter back and playing 33 minutes last game. Otto Porter and Lauri Markkanen are both still out tonight, however. Zach LaVine is also a big part of the Bulls’ recent success, proving he is more than a dunker. LaVine has averaged 32.0 points on 52.8% shooting during the month of February, which is up from his season average of 28.9.
On the other side, the Rockets are definitely not playing their best basketball. On top of that, reports came out that DeMarcus Cousins is going to be traded, with a move likely coming within the next week. Along with Cousins, Victor Oladipo and Christian Wood will also be sidelined tonight, putting extra pressure on John Wall. While Wall has played well, it has not been enough, with Houston losing each of the past seven games.
