An outstanding clash is expected for tonight, when the Spurs visit the Rockets, in a match between two Texas franchises: one that’s seeking revenge, and one that doesn’t want to be where it is right now.
On the one hand, we have Houston, a team that is fighting for Western Conference playoff supremacy. On the other, we have San Antonio, a squad that wants to be part of the conversation.
The Rockets, going through some significant momentum and playing at home, are doubtlessly favorites for this clash. The favoring spread for Houston has been the largest between these two squads in their past seven meetings being at 10-110 right now. The total is currently at 233-110, and this is the second straight game between these two that this is the case. The money line for the Rockets is -570 and for the Spurs +420.

San Antonio Spurs Betting Odds
This team is currently 10-15 straight up, and have come up with only 3 victories on the road out of their last eleven away from home.
But, from a basketball betting perspective, they’ve been even worse, as they own the worst across the spread record in the NBA at 6-18-1. They have also covered just four times with a single PUSH in their previous twelve meetings with Houston.
The Spurs odds vs. the Rockets are at +10-110 and +420 with the total at 233-110. Bet on the Spurs and enjoy the best basketball betting odds at Skybook.ag
And, as if this landscape weren’t challenging enough, the Spurs have also played four straight OT matches, turning in the first squad in league history to do so.
If you make the numbers, that’s a total of 25 extra minutes of professional hoops. Luckily for San Antonio, they are coming from an excellent 5-day break, and tonight’s game will be just their 6th this month.
What’s most important is the fact that this franchise is just a match out of the postseason picture in the West, so getting this victory is crucial.
And so for this win to take place, the team will need to rely on Dejounte Murray and Jakob Poeltl, who will need to put up some of their best performances of the season versus Harden and Russell Westbrook.
Houston Rockets Betting Odds
To turn into a dominant force in the NBA, you need to win at home. And, although the Rockets currently carry a 9-4 straight up record, they have struggled recently at Toyota Center.
The Rockets, have lost two straight games at home and have also failed to cover in 3 in a row. After even facing rivals that can be considered as inferior, such as the Pistons, the Kings, and the Suns.
Now, this game can also serve as revenge for the Rockets, who lost the most recent contest between these two 135-133 in San Antonio, on December 3, 2019.
And with Luka Doncic out for the next few weeks, and Dallas playing top rivals in the East for their next four, Houston can take advantage of this stretch to become even more solid and keep pace with the top teams in the West.
Spurs at Rockets Betting Trends
- San Antonio is 4-12-1 ATS in its last 17 games.
- Houston is 1-4 ATS in its last five games.
- The UNDER is 9-4 in San Antonio’s last 13 games vs. the Southwest Division.
This is promising to turn into a very disputed contest between two franchises with a disputed and historic rivalry.
