Rockets at Jazz live stream info: How to watch online
By Ben Ladner
The Utah Jazz will host the Houston Rockets on Monday night. Here is how to watch this Western Conference NBA game online via live streaming.
With the NBA entering its stretch run, nearly every team in the league will be worth watching – or at least monitoring – as the season nears an end. Among the league’s most fascinating teams are the Utah Jazz and Houston Rockets, who will square off for the fourth and final time of the season.
Tipoff is scheduled for 9:00 p.m. EST (7:00 p.m. MST) on February 26, 2018 at Vivint Smart Home Arena in Salt Lake City, Utah. The local Jazz broadcast can be found on AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain, while the Rockets’ feed will air on AT&T SportsNet Southwest. The game can also be streamed online via NBA League Pass and FuboTV.
Utah (31-29) was playing its best basketball of the season just prior to the All-Star break, amassing an 11-game win streak before the idle period. That streak was snapped on Friday night, but the Jazz got back on the right track by turning around to beat Dallas on Saturday. As they have become known for, Utah has thrived mainly due to its defense, which ranks fifth in the NBA, though its 17th-ranked offense has been just good enough at the right times for the team to grind out wins.
The Rockets (46-13) will be on the tail end of one of the toughest back-to-backs in the league after playing in Denver on Sunday night. For most teams, this game might be penciled in as a schedule loss – and it may end up being that – but Houston has not been playing ordinary basketball. James Harden and Chris Paul have kept the Rockets neck-and-neck with the Warriors all season long, and have recently propelled the team to an NBA-best 11-game win streak and 15 wins in its last 16 games. Houston leads the league in offensive efficiency and ranks in the top 10 in defense.

Every remaining game will be vital to Utah’s playoff hopes. The Jazz are currently in 10th place in the West, but sit only a game back of eighth and four games back of third place in the win column. Certainly the team is trending in the right direction, but Utah’s recent success must be sustained in order for it to matter. For Houston, the ceiling and the stakes are a few notches higher. This team was built to challenge Golden State, and the evidence becomes more and more convincing that it can.
