Preview Roundups
November 29, 2015
Milwaukee at Charlotte 2:00 PM ET
The Milwaukee Bucks are having some trouble on the defensive end and hope their fortunes change when coach Jason Kidd returns to the bench as they visit the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday. Kidd was suspended for Friday’s road trip opener at Orlando, where his team fell 114-90.
Minnesota at L.A. Clippers 3:30 PM ET
The Los Angeles Clippers occasionally show what kind of team they can be when everything works on both ends of the floor, they just have some trouble doing it consistently. The Clippers will try to put together back-to-back wins when they host the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday.
Detroit at Brooklyn 6:00 PM ET
Detroit has several home games coming up, but it still needs to rediscover the winning formula for the road. The Pistons, who won their first three road games, are struggling through a 1-6 stretch away from home as they enter a Sunday night contest at Brooklyn.
Boston at Orlando 6:00 PM ET
The Orlando Magic have clinched their first winning month since March of 2012 and attempt to go over .500 for the first time this season when the Boston Celtics pay a visit on Sunday. The Magic won their second straight with a new starting lineup on Friday in a 114-90 rout of Milwaukee while improving to 8-6 in November.
Phoenix at Toronto 6:00 PM ET
The Phoenix Suns are in a tough spot, losers of four straight and beginning their longest road trip of the season against one of the hottest teams in the Eastern Conference. The Suns begin the voyage Sunday night at Toronto, which has won four in a row and is coming off perhaps its most dramatic victory of the season.
Philadelphia at Memphis 6:00 PM ET
The Philadelphia 76ers just set the record for the longest losing streak in the history of the four major North American sports with their 27th straight setback dating back to last season on Friday. The road to win No. 1 does not get any easier when the 76ers visit the Memphis Grizzlies on Sunday.
Houston at New York 7:30 PM ET
James Harden scored 50 points on Wednesday, and the Houston Rockets needed every one of those baskets just to survive at home against the worst team in the league. The Rockets will try to take whatever positives they can find from that performance on the road when they visit the New York Knicks on Sunday.
Indiana at L.A. Lakers 9:30 PM ET
The Indiana Pacers square off against old friend Roy Hibbert for the first time when they begin a four-game road trip Sunday against the Los Angeles Lakers. Hibbert, a 7-2 center who is averaging 8.4 points, 6.7 rebounds and a team-best  2.1 blocks in his first season with Los Angeles, played his first seven years with Indiana before the Pacers decided he wouldn't be a good fit in their up-tempo offense and shipped him to the Lakers during the offseason.
