The Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Clippers will face off on the final day of the NBA regular season. The game starts at 3:30 p.m. ET/12:30 p.m. PT on Sunday, April 14. It will be the Clippers’ final regular season home game at the Crypto.com Arena, as the team will play games at the brand-new Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California, starting in 2024-2025.

The Rockets are eliminated from postseason contention. However, the team has taken many steps in the right direction in year one under Ime Udoka. Led by Alperen Sengün and Jalen Green, the Rockets could potnetially leap into the Play-In Tournament next season. Meanwhile, the Clippers have qualified for the playoffs for the fifth time in six seasons. When healthy, the Clippers can beat any team in the NBA in a seven-game series. However, keeping their star players on the court has been challenging in recent years.

If you are traveling, there could be issues with your streaming service. A virtual private network (VPN) will hide your IP address and connect to a digital server in the U.S. or any country you choose. A VPN will help work around geo-blocking, so you can access your streaming services as if you were at home.

When it comes to VPNs, our top recommendation is NordVPN. With NordVPN, users will gain more security and privacy while using the internet. There is no regular free trial for NordVPN. However, NordVPN does offer a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it risk-free.
