The Houston Rockets (10-30) are at the bottom of the Western Conference and are on a massive seven-game losing streak. They suffered a loss against the Minnesota Timberwolves (104-96) in their last outing.
Kevin Porter Jr. led the scoring charts for the Rockets with 25 points along with six rebounds and five assists. Alperen Sengun contributed 18 points in the defeat. But all of this fell short in front of 20+ performances from Anthony Edwards and D'Angelo Russell. This was the Rockets' 14th home loss in 20 home games.
They will now take on the Sacramento Kings (21-18), who are in a much better position as they are fifth in the West. The Kings are coming off a win against the Orlando Magic (136-111) in their previous outing.
The Kings' entire starting lineup contributed to the win with a double-digit performance, led by Harrison Barnes, who scored a maximum of 30 points for the team. The bench too proved to be good enough and chipped in with double-digit points. The Kings are very high on confidence and will be looking for their second consecutive win.
