The Houston Rockets look to get their winning ways going as they try to establish a new win streak against the Sacramento Kings on Sunday at Golden 1 Center.

The Rockets, 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games, are given a -12.0 point handicap against the skidding Kings.

Current Form:

After back-to-back overtime losses to Denver, 125-128, and New Orleans, 128-133, the Rockets got back on track after scoring a signature win in their rematch against the Nuggets, 115-101, on Saturday. Kevin Durant led the way with 31 points, and Reed Sheppard fired 28 points off the bench. Jabari Smith also scored 22 points for the Rockets, who held Denver to just 40 percent shooting. Houston is second in the Southwest Division with a 17-8 record, two games behind the 20-7 Spurs.

The Kings’ misery continues following another loss to the Portland Trail Blazers, 93-98, on Saturday. Dennis Schroder scored a team-high 21 points off the bench, and Maxine Raynauld posted 17 points and 11 rebounds. The Kings only shot 38 percent from the field and made only 6 of their 31 attempts from beyond the three-point line. The Kings are missing two key cogs in Zach Lavine (ankle) and Domantas Sabonis (knee).

Our Houston Rockets vs Sacramento Kings Prediction

Fearless Forecast: The Rockets won by 27 points over the Kings in their last meeting on December 4. With Sacramento missing Sabonis and LaVine, it will be even harder for them to compete against the Rockets, who are fresh off a signature win over the Nuggets. Houston is a terrific road team with a 10-5 record against the spread in 15 away games this season. Sacramento, which is the fourth-worst offensive team at 111.5 points per game this season, direly needs more production from DeMar DeRozan, Russell Westbrook and other veterans to match the Rockets’ firepower.

Our betting prediction for the Sacramento Kings vs. the Houston Rockets: The Rockets -12.0 points

Prediction:

 

The Rockets -12.0 points
