Houston Rockets vs Utah Jazz Full Game Highlights – October 8, 2025 | NBA Preseason

Basketball is underway. The Rockets final two preseason games will be on the road. And the Jazz about Ace Bailey. Durant’s first shot. No good offensive rebound. Back to Smith. Rockets had a bunch of offensive rebounds like they all 15 of Alp’s 19 points against the Hawks came in the the second quarter. And they get one back. Talented another three. They’re third. Packing Thompson this time all the way to the rim again. He’s got Elbow Jay. And that’s his first make, albeit in the preseason. Starting to warm up. And it helps that he’s just one of the league’s alltime shooters. Turnover force kick out and Ram for a mid huge improvement last season especially shooting the basketball was terrific the last half of last season that’s a tough shot there by this Jazz team does look a lot different than the one that was on the floor a year ago catch and shoot three Shepard season he’s nine for nine seven for seven the other night how about some defense too in Oh, I don’t know if Kevin wanted to be in a jumping. Walter Clayton Jr. Shenon recovers, blocks the shot, but they’re going to say it was a goal here. So, they switch up on Holiday. Never shy as Aaron Holidayiday to get some shots off. He’s going to pass Dirt and most likely he’s going to pass Michael Jordan as well. And right there he scores two more. Just 22 minutes. He has been impressive since day one of training camp. And again, that strong first impression carried over to the preseason opener as Cody Williams tonight. Shenon tracks it down. Back to him. Another chance. This time it goes down. Good sign. You see Kevin Durant starting to talk, starting to liven up. But again, he’s going to and one debut. Here comes Davidson right down Broadway. A lot of bodies there in the way. Kicks it back out. Holidays three. Durant circles, dunks. I mean, you just saw that 75 wingspang reach out. That looked like it was going to be a layup until the last second. You know, they still list him at six. Unit run with JD Jameson. Look, he’s earned it and the coaches have rewarded him. No look. Stutter step slam on the other side for Shenon. Rockets rip and run. Here’s Thompson weaving, scoring, and got fouled. You see the difference for Utah. Nine points, four boards, a dime for Bailey. He looks good inside to Jabari Smith from behind. Got fouled out of Cal and he was able to sub in for different guys and just brought a lot of versatility. George over Shepard. Oh, he bakes it in. He is one of your guys. He is my guy. Shenun into Thompson. That’s pretty off the ball when Shenun has the ball and when he drives he still sees you. Eight assists for Shenun. Oh. Oh. Fred out. Move. Rockets do turn the Jazz over. They have numbers. Shenun to Thompson up. Thompson jump. Big fella. I mean, we’re all over the place. Smith over Anderson. Rattle out. Then Rford Rocket now in double figures. Another turnover. Another outlet. Spinning is Thompson. The distance. He is their leading scoreer with 11. Now gets switched up on Shepard. Pulls back. Oh my gosh. Wow. I think we might see him go with this particular unit. It’s scary to think that the Rockets can get even bigger. After an incredible summer where he shined during Euro Basket, Alfie looks confident and ready to go for three start up to 13 points and that one was telegraphed and Ace Bailey’s looked good here tonight. Got the steal there. just hit the shot. Just made another one. That’s what really sparked Houston’s run. Durant. Wow. Both these things can become a slog. They have not been so far in these two outings for Houston. And Shepard quick release and oh dropped. How about that? How about Durant going over and high-fiving Reed Shepard looking for him, making sure his confidence is there. Hri, I’m watching Ace Ace Bailey in his debut here tonight. excited. Yeah, right on Q from your lips to his ear, man. He He’s playing. But he has signed, sealed, and delivered with Utah. And yes, really good impressive. Hendricks likes that wing. Highscoring game here. A lot of offense. Shard. Nice move. Three swings it to Oki now finds Reed. The extra pass. Nicely done. And that is a make for Jerry on the road. Won’t be back here until their home opener, which is a juicy one against this. Got to run him off the line. George corner three. Three wall last year. Utah is lighting him up. There’s a Kogi wide open. Nice find from Tar Een, man. He makes those shots. He’s going to have a chance to help this ball club. Utah takes a lot. You create ball movement and you see the harassing defense there from Harkas. Gorgeous six for eight. Sheepard to a cutting oi. Nice find. Little trainer was the lead trainer for the national team. So he knows Kevin Durant well. He knows Kevin Love. for Holiday. Left it short. Yeah, Holiday going to get up some shots, man. And that goes down. Sensible ball shirt that he had. Oh, uh, sequence. Sequence. His red sequence shirt. Oh, the one I the one I wore for uh game one of the playoffs. Mhm. And there’s a run for So Bailey is being defended by Jeff Green, who could be his father. Excuse me. He’s old enough to be his dad on that late cut. He was blanketing Bailey. Holiday from the wing. Davidson up top. Capella got to go there. There’s not a moment since he’s been in Houston that he is not impressed. That’s why Utah was like, “You are not going anywhere. You ain’t being traded. You are going to report.” Holiday off the pick went out tonight. Impressive stuff from Ace Bailey. Well, for a young guy, it speaks volumes. Ki Davidson. Another quick release. Flying comes Coffer. And there’s Oogi to clean it up. Picked up by Keon Harris and Jeff Green dumps it back. Cameron Matthews. There’s a SEC matchup. Jeff Green off the glass for 10 points. Oh, Jeff, man, Jeff is efficient. That That’s what you get consistently from him. Oh, the bank for Green will whirl. Shot, bounce, miss, follow, score. Oh, watch out there. Harris to a cutting Crawford single green slot three dances off sends the ball the skip. Oh, there goes Jeff Green. Track it back. Got the ball but also a piece of Hendricks. Rockets turn the Jazz over. Davises has Harris running with him. Takes it himself. Going to get their second win in their second try of the preseason. This time 140 to 127.
