Magic 29, Rockets 20 after 1. Rockets shot OK inside the 3-point line, 7 of 12, but just 1 of 5 on 3s (Tate hit his) with 7 turnovers. The 3-point shooting and turnovers were issues last season and through the preseason. – 7:41 PM

Rockets have gone nine deep in the first quarter, with Tate, Jeff Green, Thompson, Landale and Jalen Green in after the time out. Will that be it for their rotation tonight? – 7:34 PM

Rockets half court offense was quite shaky for the game’s first five minutes, but has looked better the last couple of possessions. Still just one three-point attempt in six minutes – 7:26 PM

Totally butchered Alperen Sengun’s name in introductions, in fact both names. But last year here, they said he was from Germany, so this is better. – 7:06 PM
