Houston Rockets @ San Antonio Spurs
Two heavyweights from the Western Conference meet here for an Easter Sunday blockbuster! The Rockets have already clinched the top spot in the conference and the Spurs will be looking to climb up from 4th spot and gain some ascendency over their rivals heading into the playoffs.
James Harden will be the go to man once again for Houston. He is averaging just over 30 points and 8 assists a game. If he’s anywhere near his best it should be enough to get his team over the line.
The Spurs are in form coming off a 4 point win at home over the Thunder. Power Forward Lamarcus Aldridge is in career best form and will need to dominate the paint if the Spurs are to get over the line.
Tip: Rockets by 8.
