March 2023 Houston Rockets schedule highlights
In February, between the NBA’s 2022-23 All-Star break and a five-game road trip spanning both sides of it, the Houston Rockets went nearly three full weeks without a home game.
That’s not going to be the case in March.
Fans in Houston may not be entirely thrilled with their team’s results, since the Rockets (13-47) enter the month with the NBA’s worst record and yet again in a battle for draft positioning, as opposed to a potential playoff race. But they will at least be able to see it play out within the friendly home confines of Toyota Center.
Ten of Houston’s 17 games this month are at home, including matchups versus the San Antonio Spurs (March 5), Brooklyn Nets (March 7), and Detroit Pistons (March 31) that could prove pivotal for draft positioning. The Rockets will also play road games versus Brooklyn and San Antonio in that same month.
The Rockets will have a six-game homestand from March 11-20, followed immediately by a five-game road trip from March 22-29.
Here’s a game-by-game look at the March schedule, which includes several back-to-backs. That could mean planned maintenance on either side for any veterans or young players coming off injuries.
All games will be televised regionally via AT&T SportsNet Southwest and available out of market via NBA League Pass.
