HOU vs GSW Dream11 : Two struggling sides look to continue their path to resurgence when they take on each other today.

Just when things looked like they couldn’t get any harsher for Golden State Warriors, the side managed to shine a beacon of light on their season with a win in their bygone clash. Although it came by the barest of margins, it was the resilience, perseverance and vigour which a depleted and massively drained side showed which showed they still have valour left in them.
Devoid of the services of their star performers, the side managed to ease through to a 128-127 against Portland Trail Blazers, a result which saw them wrench out of their impasse of a sorry run of results. The win took them to 12th place in the Western Conference with the two wins in give matches, a performance they’ll be looking to emulate come their match against Houston Rockets come today.
Although this encounter no longer holds the identity which it was touted to have two weeks backs with Golden State Warriors seeing Stepehn Curry and Draymond Green out for this one owing to injuries, the recent result will buoy GSW. Despite GSW’s slight revitalisation though, Houston Rockets come into this tie bearing the identity of overwhelming favourites with the side winning their previous clash as well, a much needed win which took them into 7th place in the conference.
The 107-100 win over Memphis Grizzlies was their fourth win in seven matches, a result which saw the side remind everyone of their quality and lay down their aspirations of making massive ascendancy in the Western Conference. They’ll be looking to emanate the same riveting dsplays against a GSW side which can be subjected to falling apart way too easily, a match which looks to heavily swing in their favour come today.

HOU vs GSW Dream11 Point Guard
The absence of Stephen Curry for what looks like to be the entirety of the season has seen Ky Bowman from the side get an opportunity which he wouldn’t have fathomed earlier. The conundrum of injuries has seen the point guard earn a spot in the side’s playing 5 and he’s grabbed the opportunity accorded to him with both hands with some succulent displays to see him come into our side for this match.
HOU vs GSW Dream11 Shooting Guard
His side’s leading scorer with 36.6 points per match, James Harden was an instant pick for us in this facet. He makes ad advent into today’s clash having tasted consummate success in the wake of a double-double against Memphis Grizzlies and up against a paper thin defensive GSW side, we envision him dropping a hoard of points today as well.
From the opposition meanwhile we are getting in the lone pick as well with Jordan Poole our pick for this one given his ability to send down floating shots and jump shots which should see him find the open triples with ease.
HOU vs GSW Dream11 Small Forward
With Draymond Green set to sit out this encounter, Glenn Robinson’s importance for the side grows in stature. He’ll be asked to not only canter his way in the side’s attacking sojourns but also position himself underneath his pole to pull off steals, blocks and screen opposition players to play an integral role in defence for his side.
From the opposition elsewhere we have gotten in Danuel House, a player who alongside Poole forms a daunting partnership for the side. The two are well versed in intertwining their position outside the circle and opening up open zones to send down treys and amass a slew of points for the side.
HOU vs GSW Dream11 Power Forward
The match winner for his side in the foregone encounter, Golden State Warriors’ Eric Paschall becomes an instant pick for us after his succulent display. He was the focal point of his side’s win, a player whose tenacity and tenacious display saw him clampdown his credentials on the court by dropping points at will and cantering inside the circle to send down the layups with consummate ease.
From Houston Rockets we are venturing in with P.J. Tucker for this encounter.
HOU vs GSW Dream11 Centre
Clint Capela’s skill set has seen him amass double-doubles with piquant ease, a player who has not only latched onto the deflections and rebounds in the front of the court but in defence as well. It’s see him transition the ball from defence to attack and turnover possession to ensure the side are able to carry out quick break points.
Star Player
After heavy deliberations, we are choosing Clint Capela as our captain for today.
