The Sacramento Kings ( 10 - 15 ) defeated the Houston Rockets ( 12 - 14 ) 107 - 97 in a sloppy game on Tuesday . In a battle of two of the worst defenses in the NBA , the offenses played poorly . It 's not like the defenses played well either , as Houston shot just 41 percent from the field . Sacramento did shoot 51 percent , but committed an ugly 28 turnovers in the win . There were a combined 30 steals and 49 turnovers in the game and those are not far off from NBA records . The Rockets came into this game in the second half of a back - to - back and they played tired . There were numerous possessions where players were standing around and way too many defensive lapses when there was simply no defense being played at all . The team was outrebounded 47 to 36 and shot just 31 percent from three - point range . Those are indications of a tired team , but the effort simply was n't there . James Harden was spectacular yet again though , as he tallied 33 points , seven rebounds and six assists in the defeat . Houston will have a good opportunity to bounce back when they take on the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday in their next game . It 's not too often a team commits 28 turnovers and wins , but the Kings managed to pull that off somehow on Tuesday . They played without Rajon Rondo , but all the other starters filled - in nicely in his absence . Darren Collison was the starting point guard for this game and played extremely well , accumulating 14 points , 13 assists and seven rebounds in the win . DeMarcus Cousins also stepped up in Rondo 's absence , totaling 26 points and 12 rebounds . Rudy Gay and Omri Casspi also chipped in for some great games , as they combined for 36 points , 19 rebounds , nine assists and eight steals in the victory . This was a great team performance from Sacramento and it 's nice to see everyone chipping in without Rondo in the lineup . The Kings have a few days off until their next game , when they take on the struggling Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday .
