The Rockets could have guard Aaron Brooks back after he served a one-game suspension for leaving the court in the fourth quarter of the team’s win over Memphis on Saturday. Averaging 12.2 points and 4.1 assists in 28 games, Brooks missed 24 games with a sprained ankle and has been frustrated about his diminished role. After falling 114-106 in overtime to the Lakers last Tuesday, the Rockets have won the last three by a combined eight points. Averaging 30.0 points the last four games, Martin scored 34 in a 129-125 win at Minnesota on Jan. 24.
The Timberwolves already have been without guard Luke Ridnour four straight games due to personal matters and swingman Martell Webster two because of back spasms. It’s uncertain if either will return Tuesday. Even at full strength the Timberwolves were likely to be in for a major challenge trying to beat Houston for the first time since Jan. 7, 2007. Minnesota’s 13-game skid against the Rockets is tied for the club’s third-longest current losing streak to any opponent. Minnesota is 8-60 away from home since last posting consecutive road victories April 7-8, 2009. The Timberwolves have averaged 88.3 points during an eight-game road skid at Houston dating to an 82-79 win April 12, 2006.
