Houston Rockets vs Portland Trail Blazers Full Game Highlights – July 17, 2025 | NBA Summer League

and Ashley Olsen on in the center circle, but it’s Oavore and the Rockets controlling the first possession. Had it partially blocked and pulled down by Cavan Harris on the board. Yeah, son. It’s just still adjusting to the physicality as well and the speed of the game and he’s acknowledged that and a little summer league back to back. That’s where Young’s really impressed, hasn’t it? He has. He catches into that high post. his ability to pass and also give him help. You see Love turning the corner there to finish the lay. One and done for the Blazers. Book not on the move and a ring run. A right-handed ridge from CIO. This is the part of the game where Huntson is going to struggle a little bit just the tempo and speed of the game overall. He’s got to see him now with another turnover here and those been piling up. Cam Matthews with the lane and an early stop by the Blazers. Cam Matthews is going to love. You’re talking about a guy that knows who he is and what he is and competes on the defensive end of the floor. Chandler shoots the gap running two-on-one with Harris who lays it in with a left hand. That’s the one thing about Ko Love where he’s we talked about early when we were you and I in the locker room before was his ability to consistently knock down shots. [Music] Pulls up just inside the line. That’s where he’s more comfortable there. A lot to ask for when you’re also trying to figure out how to communicate as well. Let them got one out of two there. The Rockets have missed six foul shots in this first quarter. Again, there’s so many obstacles. Love challenging that second defender and finishing. Chandler trying to cap the opening frame. Denied. Ka’s been everywhere, but a buzzer beater. All right, thanks to Bill to Kennedy’s point. Eight turnovers and six missed free throws for the Rockets in that first quarter. Yeah, both teams have just gone home runs. Most of them spins just unforced turnover. Just sloppy with the basketball. Book Knight Weaving feeding the corner alone for three. There it is. Possession there, but a lot of good ball movement. Everybody’s turning down shots, trying to create an opportunity for a teammate. That’s what you want to see. Guys competing on the defensive board, keeping them in the floor. Just let the ball flow. OAR has the offensive glass. [Music] Singing around the Rockets. Teen up a three for Arms. Here’s Love. Got a cross match back out to the three-point line. A good first half from Olivier Kamar, former Southland player of the year. It’s Steven F. Austin. Two-point game and a pick in the back court. Wilson takes over and hammers it home. [Music] Arms it well to track it down. Running around like a receiver there. Spots Wilson for three. Deep touch here. Cam Matthews defending tease up Padulla. There it is. He and the Rockets trying to win their first game here in Vegas. Portland with a record of two and one as Padulla pours in a three. Had a good look there. These have been the two for Portland. They’ve been shining bright in Las Vegas. Hey, he’s allowed to be tired [Applause] and that’s on him. He’s got to stay between ball and basket on the ball screen there. That’s his job there. Guards got to fight through the screens, get back in front of the ball, but it’s a big and drop coverage. You can’t give up a layup. Gives it back to Love slicing through for two and a free throw to follow. [Applause] And now he’s got some mentorship in the building as well. He’s got two like that in Sean Padulla and Caleb Love. Both guards on the floor right now have that. So puts it up and some creativity on the finish. Chandler hopes to get the last of the Rockets. Abdullahounding him. Led the screen over the big and he cans the pull up jumper. Skying for possession. Tough pass to handle, but Young’s got it. Sissoko with the short clock. Ret between you and the basket. Smart decision for Chandler to get it out of there. Matthews missing the three at the end of that possession. Book Knight got it to go. I think this role serves Book Knight and Love. They’re two similar players. They’re both natural scorers. Showing you that switching on the ball screen there. That time he had Kale Love one-on-one. Kale Love didn’t tackle them. Harris behind the back, splits two. OAR with the finish. That’s where he’s comfortable there. Getting in that dunker spot. [Applause] Matthews was dead on the dribble. Turned it over. So has been really impressive in his ability to move his feet. Gets all the way home. Sals holding his ground there up ahead to Wilson. Spinning through traffic. Came up short on the layup. Was it Oabore who threw it back in? Good thing he did, too. Somehow got it around and underneath Young for here. You take this assist. Plays coming over here. That’s why I’m Samuels feeds Wilson. Extra pass. Cavon Harris gets it again. Young Hansen screening up top for Bedulla. Patient behind it. Drops the bounce pass. Easy deuce for the big Browning. And a free throw to follow. [Applause] Sideline action to get us restarted in the third. The put back belongs to Germaine Samuels Jr. He’s no stranger to summer league after going undrafted in 22. Was here with Indiana. Now his third trip to Las Vegas with the Rockets. McCoy answers at the other end. [Music] Adonis Arm sprays it out to Samuels. Knock down. [Music] It’s been a good battle both directions. Chandler and Vidulla on a step through. Got the ball in a two-point lead as we open up this fourth quarter. Looking for Young had it stolen on the run out. Adonis Arms wrenches it with the right. Book Knight had to get that up a little higher. Can’t throw it high enough to get it in hand. Sun book Knight clean for three. Rick Core. There it is. numbers for the Blazers if they hurry. They got just a guy. DJ Carton. Set it up or tear it down. That’s quite a production. Reminds me a little bit of that speed. He can cruise here. That’s easy money. [Music] So, eight unanswered. The lead in the basketball for Carr for Book Knight and Portland. Rocking the dribble against Matthews. over the top and hits Devon Harris and his hoch. 12 to shoot. Level crossing over Carr. Chris Le strong take it to Soko on the return feed. Harris defending. Uh-oh. Look out. Bam. Back to back for Buck Knight. He’s filling it on a big day in the Pacific Northwest. Find a little zone here. Justin McCoy made him pay. Chandler off the high screen. Oavar rolling now. Puts it back to the basket. Oavore needs to come alive. The Rockets to climb back in this. Got to finish possessions. Chandler will finish this one. Rockets not done yet. Four and a half to go. Booknot feeling it. Wow. He’s been amazing here and he’s closing this game for the Blazers. How do you leave him? How do you leave him? Wow. Shows you why the Blazers are in control of this one. Nice mid-range jumper. Chris Ledu. Defender Wilson draped all over rising for three. You bet. He didn’t want to. It was too easy. He had to step back and knock down his 63. [Applause] Led again under control. So composed with his take. Proved to three and one on their summer schedule. The consolation game still to come this weekend. Young rolling and finishing with a pretty right hand. Rockets unable to get a win here. 0 and four. Headed to 0 and four.

  1. YANG is not that good for real, poor rebounding, too slow, not strong enough, he can read the game, he can pass, but still, not good enough
