The Houston Rockets may be looking to shake up their lineup to help solve their recent struggles.
On Monday, Alykhan Bijani of The Athletic reported that the Rockets are “leaning toward” starting Eric Gordon over James Ennis III against the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday.
This news is most likely in direct response to the Rockets’ current three-game losing streak. In those three games, the Rockets were on short end of blowouts to the Timberwolves and Jazz, and in a tight game in which they blew a fourth-quarter lead against the Mavericks.
