The Houston Rockets (12-32) travel to Golden 1 Center Sunday to take on the Sacramento Kings (18-27). Tip-off is scheduled for 6 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Rockets at Kings odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.
In the second part of their two-game series, the Rockets will remain in Sacramento, where they lost by 12 Friday. Christian Wood and Marvin Bagley both dropped 26 points with De’Aaron Fox having a game-high 27.
The Rockets, who went on an odd 7-game win streak earlier this season, are 18-25-1 ATS.
However, they’ve struggled immensely to keep games close lately, covering just 2 of their last 10, failing to cover twice as double-digit underdogs. The opposite can be said for the Kings, who have covered three straight.
The Kings are 20-25 ATS this season and are just 5-5 as home favorites.
