A lack of consistent minutes could be making it difficult for Sheppard to get in a rhythm. That role is partly due to the Rockets not being in a position to let him play through his mistakes.

Chicago Bulls legend Scottie Pippen revealed the truth about his time with the Houston Rockets and Charles Barkley’s lifestyle.

The Houston Rockets pulled off a huge upset over the Boston Celtics on the road on Monday night thanks to monster performances from Amen Thompson and Dillon Brooks.
