NBA basketball game between the Houston Rockets and the Phoenix Suns at the Toyota Center.
The Houston Rockets take on the Phoenix Suns at the Toyota Center on Wednesday, November 25, 2026. It's a regular-season NBA matchup, so it's the Rockets hosting the Suns right here in downtown Houston. If you've been following the season, this is one of those mid-week games that falls on a Wednesday night, which makes it a bit easier to get to than a weekend slot when the city is already packed.
On the court, it's the Rockets against the Suns. The Rockets are playing on their home floor, and the Suns are coming in from Phoenix. It's a standard NBA game—four quarters of basketball, with the Rockets holding the home-court advantage. If you're a Rockets fan, this is one of those nights where you get to see them in their own building, and if you're just into the league, it's a chance to see two teams from different conferences face off in the middle of the season.
