Houston Rockets vs Sacramento Kings Prediction: Will this game end with a win for the Kings?

Sacramento State has won all three of its games against Houston this season. Will the fourth and final meeting of the season series end with a win for the Kings as well?

The Rockets had conceded 293 points in their previous two meetings. First, the team allowed Oklahoma City to set the club record for points scored in a single game - 121:153. Then they once again lost to Sacramento State - 120:140. Houston was very successful in neutralizing their opponents from the three-point line but still has huge problems on defense.

The team played at Toyota Center against Houston after two straight losses - to Indiana (104:107), where the Kings narrowly missed out on a double-digit comeback, and to New Orleans (104:136). After failures to beat the Rockets, the Western Conference's primary underdog, Sacramento, of course, simply had to. They made it 140:120. The Kings made 21 of their 41 three-point attempts. Keegan Murray (8-of-12 and 30 points) and Malik Monk (6-of-12 and 20 points) were the best. We should also note the double-double of Domantas Sabonis, who added ten assists to his 17 points.

Houston has the worst three-point-neutral offense this season. Sacramento is one of the best teams. That largely explains the Kings' three convincing wins over the Rockets this season. Why shouldn't Mike Brown's team repeat that success in Game 4 of this contest?
