While the Sacramento Kings snapped their 16-game losing streak, do not expect them to start a winning streak against the Houston Rockets tonight.
My Kings vs. Rockets predictions and NBA picks have little faith in either team on Wednesday, February 25.
Kings vs Rockets prediction
Kings vs Rockets best bet: Under 221.5 (-110)
The Houston Rockets will long lament Fred VanVleet’s preseason injury.
Without a quality point guard, adding Kevin Durant has been a relative disappointment for the Rockets. Since New Year’s, their offensive rating has sat at No. 24 in the NBA, scoring just 111.3 points per 100 possessions.
Fortunately, Houston’s defense ranks No. 6 in that same stretch, which should obviously stifle the Sacramento Kings’ heavily depleted rotation. There are several reasons the Kings’ offensive rating is No. 27 since January 1, and most of those reasons are injuries.

Kings vs Rockets same-game parlay
Kevin Durant has cleared this prop in two of his last three, three of his last five, and four of his last seven.
Those are all modest enough rates, but given how depleted Sacramento’s rotation is, logic can safely expect Durant to score efficiently, shooting over just about everyone.
