Opponent: Houston Rockets
Site: USAir Arena, Landover
Time: 7:30
TV/Radio: HTS/WTEM (570 AM)
Outlook: This will be the teams' second and final meeting of the season. The Rockets beat the Bullets, 93-85, on Dec. 13 in Houston. The defending NBA champions have a new look, having added Clyde Drexler this week from the Portland Trail Blazers for Otis Thorpe. Drexler played his first game for the Rockets last night in Houston's 105-89 win in Charlotte. C Hakeem Olajuwon was second in the league in scoring (28.2 ppg), fourth in rebounding (11.2) and second in blocks (3.5) going into last night. The Bullets begin a stretch in which six of their next seven games will be at home.
