Meanwhile, the Portland Trailblazers are entering this game after losing a close battle against the Oklahoma City Thunder and saw 4 players hit more than 20 points. The Rockets have won 3 games in a row and have won 4 out of the 7 games since James Harden was shipped to the Brooklyn Nets. For the Trailblazers, they have been without C.J. McCollum for the last 3 games, and have depended upon players like Gary Trent Jr. and Anfernee Simmons to generate offense at the two-guard position. The Rockets have fared well recently and their wealth of experience has helped them gain some wins, they have recently acquired Kevin Porter Jr. from the Cavaliers and are trying to get in some young talent in the team. The Portland Trailblazers will look to commence a win-streak here and hope they don’t suffer too much in the absence of their star Guard C.J McCollum.

HOU vs POR Dream11 Match Prediction
The Rockets are doing well without James Harden and the team chemistry has deepened, the likes of Eric Gordon, John Wall, and DeMarcus Cousins have stepped up to the plate on both ends. On the other hand, The Trailblazers will be glad that players like Anfernee Simmons have risen on occasions without C.J. but it is the defense that has bothered them especially since Nurkic has gone down, as even though Kanter is good at rebounding and scoring, he is not much of a defensive presence. This game can swing either way and it is tough to judge a winner because the Rockets are gelling well and the Trailblazers are without C.J, however, Dame can get a big night and can make a difference.
Houston Rockets vs Portland Trailblazers, Key Players:
Damian Lillard
PPG: 28.7
APG: 7.0
RPG: 4.4
Dame is the engine that drives the Trailblazers and he has been proficient at the offensive end, which can be understood by him having 3 30+ points games out of the last 5 he has played. He has now a lot to do in absence of his backcourt mate C.J. Lillard bagged 26 points, 10 assists, and 6 rebounds in the close loss to Oklahoma City. Lillard is probably the favorite for the Super-Player pick in the Dream11 Fantasy basketball set-up.
Christian Wood
PPG: 23.5
RPG: 10.8
BPG: 1.8
Christian has had a terrific season and is one of the best players at the Center position this season. His rise has been a surprise and he has made most of his opportunities so far. Wood missed the last three games but in his latest interview claimed that he is 100% to go for the game against the Trailblazers.
Victor Oladipo
PPG: 21.8
APG: 4.8
RPG: 4.5
SPG: 1.5

Oladipo collected 20 points, 5 rebounds, and 1 assist in the win against the Wizards.
John Wall
PPG: 17.9
APG: 5.4
RPG: 4.0
Wall hasn’t been the same player that he was 2-3 years ago, but that he mostly because he is returning from an injury, however, he has helped the Rockets by taking the playmaking duties and has been an above-average scorer at the Point Guard spot. Wall had a great outing in the win against his former team Wizards, notching 24 points, 5 assists, and 2 rebounds.
