By

On Saturday night, De’Aaron Fox and the Sacramento Kings head to Texas to play Fred VanVleet and the Houston Rockets at the Toyota Center. The game tips off at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on November 4. Fox, the Kings’ best player, missed Thursday night’s 122-114 loss to the Golden State Warriors with an ankle injury. Fox is close to returning for the Kings (2-2) and may play tonight. The Rockets (1-3) won their first game of the season on Wednesday over the Charlotte Hornets by a score of 128-119.

Kings versus Rockets is a local game, meaning fans in the Sacramento market can watch it on NBC Sports California, and the Houston market can catch the action on AT&T SportsNet Southwest. For NBA fans across the country interested in the game, they will need to purchase NBA League Pass, the league’s television package that includes coverage of every game. One way to stream League Pass is through Sling TV, a streaming television service. Find out more information on Sling TV below.

Saturday’s matchup between the Kings and Rockets features some of the game’s most promising young players. The Kings overachieved last season, snapping their 16-season playoff drought. The Rockets are looking to follow suit and end the season over .500 for the first time since 2019-2020. If you’re watching in League Pass in the U.S., you should have no problems accessing the game. However, watching the game abroad may require a VPN.

By combining a VPN with Sling TV, users will alleviate the streaming issues that come up with regional broadcast restrictions. A VPN will bypass these limitations while adding more security and privacy to your connection. A VPN will assign you an IP from the U.S. to make it seem like you’re streaming from home. NordVPN is our top recommendation for VPN services. One of the best VPN services available, NordVPN allows customers to try the service for free for a month.

Sin City hosts Sunday Night Football as the Las Vegas Raiders (4-5) welcome the New York Jets (4-4) to Allegiant Stadium in Week 10. The game will start at 8:20 p.m. ET/5:20 p.m. PT on November 12. Mike Tirico, Cris Collinsworth, and Melissa Stark are on the call for NBC, and the game will also stream on Peacock.

Despite their mediocre records, the Jets and Raiders are hunting for a Wild Card spot in the AFC. The Jets must improve their offense if they want any shot at the postseason. The Jets have a league-worst eight offensive touchdowns on the season. For Las Vegas, the Raiders fired head coach Josh McDaniels before Week 9 and promoted Antonio Pierce to interim coach. The Raiders responded by beating the Giants 30-6.

USC Trojans vs. Oregon Ducks live stream: watch college football for free

College football doesn't get much better than a night game at Autzen Stadium in Eugene, Oregon. The No. 6 Oregon Ducks (8-1) will host the USC Trojans (7-3) in a Pac-12 rivalry game on Saturday night. The opening kickoff is scheduled for 10:30 p.m. ET/7:30 p.m. PT on November 11. Tim Brando, Spencer Tillman, and Josh Sims will call the game on Fox.

USC and Oregon are two teams heading in different directions. USC has lost three of their last four games and will likely not qualify for the Pac-12 Championship in Las Vegas. Meanwhile, Oregon remains one of the best teams in the country, with their only blemish coming on the road in a three-point loss to Washington. If Oregon wins out, they will likely have their rematch with Washington in the conference championship.
