Texas is split as the Spurs and Houston Rockets face off in Western Conference Semi Finals of the NBA Playoffs, and Sen. Ted Cruz has made his allegiance to Clutch City clear.

The Rockets' Snapchat included a photo of the Houston-based senator donning a "Run as One" T-shirt and standing beside another fan on their story earlier this week.

"Senator Ted Cruz votes Rockets," the photos was captioned.

The Spurs and Rockets meet again for Game 3 in Houston at 8:30 p.m. Friday.
