The Houston Rockets and Sacramento Kings are scheduled to meet in NBA action at Toyota Center on Saturday, with tipoff at 8:00PM ET.

Based on the latest simulation results and today’s injury news, Dimers' proven NBA model (see Dimers Pro for full access) projects the Rockets as the most likely winner of today's game.

"Our team has used the latest data to run 10,000 simulations of Saturday's Sacramento-Houston game," said Damien Souness from Dimers.
