Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Houston Rockets Prediction
Chet Holmgren is averaging 2.6 blocks per game in his rookie season which is the fourth best mark in the NBA. In just 56 career games, Holmgren has already established himself as a premier shot blocker. He has recorded 3+ blocks in four of his last six starts.
The Rockets are a great matchup for opposing shot blockers as they are allowing the fifth most blocks per game and the fourth most blocks to the center position specifically over the last 30 games.
Holmgren was able to take advantage of this matchup in a big way once already and I’m expecting a similar result tonight. Consider taking the over on his O2.5 blocks.
