Sacramento Kings
Sacramento comes into this game with a 28-49 record and away from home they have a 12-26 record. The Kings haven’t had the best season but they have won three of their last four games. The loss during that stretch was against the Miami Heat by 23 points. Each of the last three wins the Kings have scored at least 110 points.
The Kings as a team are averaging 110.5 points while their defense is giving up 115.8 points per game. The defense is ranked 29th in the NBA and in this game they are going to need to find a way to play better defense.
This is a team that is banged up including De’Aaron Fox who is dealing with a hand injury. He is averaging 23.2 points per game and not having him is a big loss for this team. Domantas Sabonis is averaging 18.9 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 5.8 assists per game.
Houston Rockets

Houston is averaging 109.3 points while their defense is giving up 117.7 points per game. This is a Rockets defense that has struggled this season, but that shouldn’t be all that shocking because they are a young team.
Eric Gordon, Dennis Schroder, Alperen Sengun, John Wall, and Christian Wood are all dealing with injuries and won’t be playing in this game. This is a young team and it’s going to need to be the young guys that step up in this game.
