Wizards at Rockets preview: Washington takes on surging Houston squad

The Washington Wizards take on another contender Wednesday night when they pay a visit to the Houston Rockets at Toyota Center.

**When:** Wednesday, Nov. 12th at 8:00 p.m. ET

**Where:** Toyota Center, Houston, Texas

**How to watch:** Monumental Sports Network, League Pass

**Injuries:** For the Wizards, Bilal Coulibaly (calf) is out. For the Rockets, Fred VanVleet (torn ACL) and Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle) are both out.

The Wizards are fresh off their second huge meltdown of the season when they let a winnable game slip away Monday against the No. 1 seed Detroit Pistons. Wednesday’s contest against the Rockets gives the team a shot at redemption against yet another top-ranked foe.

Washington is looking to avoid a 10-game losing streak just 12 games into the 2025-26 campaign. The Wiz will need to upset a red-hot Rockets team to do it. Houston has won six of its last seven games and seems to be fully in sync with major offseason acquisition Kevin Durant.

Kyshawn George and Alex Sarr will get to test their defensive mettle when they match up with Durant and Alperen Sengun, respectively.
