KEY GAME INFORMATION

HOUSTON: LAST SEASON: 53-29, lost 4-2 to Golden State in Western Conference semifinals.
COACH: Mike D'Antoni (fourth season with Rockets, 173-73; 16th season overall, 628-499).
PROJECTED STARTING FIVE: G Russell Westbrook (22.9 ppg with Oklahoma City), G James Harden (36.1), F Eric Gordon (16.2), F P.J. Tucker (7.3), C Clint Capela (12.0).
KEY LOSSES: G Chris Paul, G Iman Shumpert, C Kenneth Faried
KEY ADDITIONS: Westbrook, C Tyson Chandler, F Thabo Sefolosha, F Ryan Anderson, F Ben McLemore.
PLAYERS TO WATCH: All eyes will be on Westbrook and Harden as the Rockets try to prove that these two ball-dominant guards can coexist after Houston sent Paul to Oklahoma City in exchange for Westbrook. Harden and Westbrook are longtime friends and played together in Oklahoma City at the beginning of Harden's career when he was the sixth man for the Thunder and insist that things will work out because they want them to. But things have changed a lot since their Oklahoma City days and it will be interesting to see how Westbrook will adjust to playing a supporting role to Harden after being the face of the Thunder for years.
OUTLOOK: The addition of Westbrook to this team starring Harden gives the Rockets two of the league's most dynamic scorers and playmakers a year after Houston lost to Golden State in the Western Conference semifinals. If the pairing of is successful it could help the Rockets become an offensive juggernaut in the stacked Western Conference. While Harden and Westbrook will drive Houston's success, players like Eric Gordon and center Clint Capela will have to continue to improve if the Rockets hope to finally get over the hump and compete for their first title since winning back-to-back championships in 1994-95.

NEW ORLEANS: LAST SEASON: 33-49, finished tied for 12th in Western Conference.
COACH: Alvin Gentry (fifth season with Pelicans, 145-183; 17th season overall, 480-553).
PROJECTED STARTING FIVE: G Lonzo Ball (9.9 ppg), G Jrue Holiday (21.2), F Brandon Ingram (18.3), F Zion Williamson (rookie), C Derrick Favors (11.8).
KEY LOSSES: F Anthony Davis, F Julius Randle, G Elfrid Payton.
KEY ADDITIONS: F Williamson, F Ingram, G Ball, C Favors, G J.J. Redick, G Nickeil Alexander-Walker, C Jaxson Hayes.
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Williamson was the No. 1 overall pick in last summer's NBA draft, was a highlight machine at Duke and has looked fearless in his first NBA preseason ' taking the ball to the hoop against the best interior defenders in the league and scoring more than 20 points in multiple games. The 6-foot-6, 285-pound rookie is a social media phenomenon and filling arenas everywhere he goes. But the additions of Ball and Redick will be important to New Orleans as well.
OUTLOOK: Of the Pelicans' four new starters brought in by Griffin, one was picked No. 1 overall this summer and two Ingram and Ball were picked second overall within the previous three years by the Lakers before being packaged with Josh Hart and draft picks in a trade sending Davis to Los Angeles. Combined with savvy veterans like Holiday and Favors, not to mention Redick off the bench, there are high hopes in New Orleans that the Pelicans are trending upward and might even contend for a playoff spot this season. The Pelicans also expect 2019 first-round picks Alexander-Walker and Hayes to contribute this season.

PREVIEW

Pelicans aim to step up defense vs. high-scoring Rockets

The Houston Rockets have won three games in a row.

The New Orleans Pelicans won their last game.

That's relatively modest success, but it has both teams feeling better as the Pelicans prepare to host the Rockets on Monday night.

The Rockets are coming off a 117-94 victory at Chicago on Saturday night. It was the first time this season that they held an opponent to fewer than 100 points.

On the same night, the Pelicans allowed their second-fewest points of the season in a 115-110 victory at Charlotte - just their second win of the season.

Houston led by just one point at halftime, but led by as many as 28 points in the second half. The Rockets allowed only 18 third-quarter points.

"Our effort, plain and simple," guard Russell Westbrook said of the improved defense in the second half. "I thought we did a good job early. They made some tough shots. We stayed with it defensively. We stayed with our defensive scheme and it worked out for us.

"We just have to be smart with the ball, stay down on those jump passes, make the simple plays."

The Rockets held the Bulls to 4-of-32 shooting on 3-pointers, a statistic that was magnified because Houston made 19-of-44 attempts from 3-point range.

"We knew that we turned the ball over too much and there were a lot of buckets we just gave them because of us (in the first half)," said James Harden, who made 9 of 19 3-pointers and led the Rockets with 42 points. "In the second half, we wanted to limit their easy buckets and limit our turnovers and we did that. Obviously, we made shots. But you do those two things, you have a better chance to win the games."

The Pelicans know they'll have a better chance to win if they can keep their points allowed closer to where it was against the Hornets. The Rockets are second in the NBA in scoring, averaging 120.1 points per game.

New Orleans is last in the NBA in scoring defense with an average of more than 122 points per game. It had to overcome 26 turnovers to win at Charlotte.

"I just thought we turned the ball over way too much," Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry said. "We've just got to get better in that department right there ... and they're careless turnovers, we've just got to get better at that.

"We grinded it out and found a way to win and to me that's the most important thing."

Point guard Lonzo Ball sat out the game because of a groin injury and the Pelicans started JJ Redick, who had his best game of the season. Redick scored 22 points, making 5-of-9 3-point shots.

"For the first time this season I feel like we were able to free JJ up for some good looks that he didn't really try to have to force up," Gentry said. "I thought we did a good job early on with the pace of the game and we got him into a situation where we were able to drive and kick and have him have some good looks and he took advantage of it."
