The Houston Rockets vs Minnesota Timberwolves matchup is one of seven NBA Summer League games scheduled on Saturday. As far as the standings are concerned, these two teams have been the polar opposites of each other.
On the one hand, the Rockets have lost all four of their Summer League outings thus far. Houston, in fact, is one of three NBA teams that have remained winless in the 2025 Summer League to date (the other two ball clubs being the New Orleans Pelicans and the Orlando Magic, both of whom stand at 0-5).
On the other hand, the Timberwolves are one of six squads that continue to boast an unblemished record. Scoring 92.5 points per game and averaging a differential of +9.5, Minnesota is riding the momentum of a four-game winning streak.
