Fresh off another loss to the Golden State Warriors, the Houston Rockets will look to stay afloat in the Western Conference with a fight against the Knicks on Monday’s league-wide slate.

For now, Houston is 3-3, which ties them for No. 7 in the West with five other teams. To be the competitive team that head coach Ime Udoka demands, they will need to win against good teams like New York.

As always, health will be a determining factor in the outcome of tonight’s contest.

Here are the injury reports for both the Rockets and Knicks:

Steven Adams – Questionable: Injury/Illness – Right knee; injury recovery

N’Faly Dante — Out: G League – Two-Way

Jack McVeigh — Out: G League – Two-Way

Nate Williams – Out: G League – Two-Way

Cameron Payne – Doubtful: injury/illness – Left hamstring: strain

Precious Achiuwa – Out: Injury/Illness – Left Hamstring: Strain

Kevin McCullar – Out: G League – Two-Way

Mitchell Robinson – Out: Injury/Illness – Left ankle; surgery

New York has some key contributors in Robinson and Achiuwa, who would be pillars in the team’s depleted frontcourt. Houston will be without Steven Adams, but has had success without its nearly 7-foot enforcer on the court.

The Rockets and Knicks will kick off at 7:45 pm CT. Both teams will look to get their fourth wins of the season.
