Houston Rockets Game PREVIEWS: Pacers & Celtics | Alperen Sengun Set To DOMINATE Inside?

Houston Rockets brace for showdowns against the Indiana Pacers and Boston Celtics—will Alperen Şengün’s unique post game and rebounding edge tip the scales? Host Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) is joined by Locked On Pacers host Tony East to spotlight how the Pacers are navigating life without Tyrese Haliburton and why Andrew Nembhard’s evolving playmaking could threaten Houston’s defense, also shedding light on Indiana’s draft philosophy, key injuries, and the importance of controlling the glass against the Rockets’ relentless offensive rebounding.

Boston Celtics silence doubters with a surprising climb to third in the Eastern Conference, despite missing Jayson Tatum. Locked On Celtics host John Karalis reveals how Jaylen Brown’s All-NBA caliber season, unexpected contributions from Neemias Queta and Jordan Walsh, and Joe Mazzulla’s tactical adjustments have compensated for front court weaknesses. Will the Celtics’ improved rebounding be enough to counter Houston? Get expert previews of matchups, trade deadline speculation, and win conditions as the Rockets confront two of the East’s most unpredictable squads.
