⚾️ Houston Sports
💫 Astros
Lance McCullers Jr. was placed on the 15-day injured list with a right foot sprain, with hopes he will only miss the minimum time required.
The Astros beat the Angels 8-7. They are now ranked first with a 45W to 33L record.
🚀 Rockets
Did you hear? The Houston Rockets landed Kevin Durant! And they hype has never been more real.
Unfortunately, we also lost Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks. I’ll honestly miss Jalen’s dunks. Nothing better.
