    As far as I know, they practice on the practice court that is visible from outside Toyota Center. It's on the far right end of the same side of the building as the box office.

    As far as when, I'm not sure. Probably around 11am-3pm on a non-game day would be my guess. No clue where they drive in at.

    i e-mailed the team website and they said that the rockets practice at the toyota center and the times vary according to their schedule, but i'm pretty sure that they practice on tuesday since they don't have a game and the only thing i need to find out now is what time they practice. if anybody has any idea, please post it here. thanks alot.

    They always practiced at the Westside Tennis Club, I guess since they built Toyota Center they built a practice court there. At least that's what their email suggested.

    I heard that they practice in the toyota center on the main court. I read in the chronicle that they practice in there to get the feel of the court and thats how tmac practice when he was back in orlando...

    i was by the toyota center yesterday and asked the security guard that watches the tunnel that the rockets drive down into when they practice. he said that van gundy decides when they practice, but normally it is when they are in town (obviously) the day before a game and the players arrive around 9-9:30 a.m. i am going up there for an aeros game on april 15th and the rockets play on the 16th so i'll try to catch them when they come in for practice. thanks for all the feedback guys.
