What to expect from the game?

Minutes to the fringe players:

Pre-season is not an indicator of how the teams may or may not fare in the regular season. Take, for example, the Los Angeles Lakers’ performance last season when they twice beat the Golden State Warriors before the 2018-19 season, making everyone believe that Lebron James’ team would be one of the teams to beat in the Western Conference.

The pre-season is more of a series of games for the head coaches to tune the team to his plans, and an opportunity to improve the match fitness for the big players.

So expect players, including the troops from the 2nd unit, to get substantial minutes here.

Rockets will try players like Isaiah Hartenstein, Ben McLemore, Gary Clark and Shamorie Ponds with some crucial minutes on the court.
