NBA Summer League: Thursday's Picks
13 July 2023

The NBA Summer League in Las Vegas continues today with the Houston Rockets looking to keep their perfect record intact as they face the Golden State Warriors. Game time is 7:00 pm ET at Thomas & Mack Center.
The Rockets have won all three of their games against Portland, Detroit and Oklahoma City by an average margin of +8.7 points. In their most recent victory over the Thunder, 105-92, on Tuesday, the Rockets shot 52.9 percent from the field, while holding OKC to just 41.2 percent. As a team, Houston is second in the Summer League in scoring at 106.0 ppg. The Warriors, meanwhile, are 0-3 while losing by an average margin of -5.7 points. Consistent shooting has been a problem as Golden State ranks near the bottom in FG% at 38.9%.
Dunkel has the Rockets continuing their hot start with a win tonight and covering the Vegas line of -4.5 with the final score staying UNDER the total of 184.5.
Dunkel’s Pick: Houston (-4.5); UNDER.
