Houston Rockets vs. Minnesota Timberwolves: Stream, lineups, injury reports, broadcast (3/25)

A Houston Rockets team that's had trouble finding ways to win away from home all season long has a big road test on Wednesday night. The Rockets will take on the Minnesota Timberwolves at Target Center, a very tough place to play. Minnesota has a record of 24-13 on the campaign when playing in the friendly confines of Target Center.

It seems like the Rockets' best hope for a victory is for a huge scoring game from forward Kevin Durant. He's on the heels of a 40-point performance, but barring a similarly spectacular showing from him, Houston won't be able to put up the points to beat Minnesota.

The Timberwolves are the owners of a 44-28 record, good enough for fifth in the Western Conference.
