Found this story which leads me to believe this was not a fake. Sounds like that is pretty standard practice for how they do proposals at Rockets games:
"First, we are both huge Houston Rockets basketball fans—we always go to the home games.
There was a game on a Friday November 11, 2006. My boyfriend was talking about getting some friends and family together to go to Houston, Texas, for the weekend. I was amazed that he got 23 people to go.
In Houston, we got ready to go to the game—I was so angry at him all day because he was being very moody!. He, two others and I had to be there early to arrange everybody's seats. Well, that's what they led me to believe.
A Rockets employee came up to us and asked if we would like to participate in a promotional game on court—I was freaking out! I asked her why she picked us. She said because we looked like dedicated Rockets fans, and we did, we were all decked out in Rockets gear!
When the time came, we went on court and played a game of basketball Tic Tac Toe (I beat him). At this point I was still clueless of what was about to happen. The announcer said there was something else for me and gave my boyfriend the microphone. He got down on one knee, opened the ring box, and asked me to marry him in front of 20,000 people center court of a professional basketball game! I was such in shock I didn't even answer him! I eventually said yes!
It was the most amazing day of my life! It was like we were famous that night. Everywhere we went people were congratulating us! I was so clueless about all the planning and everyone there knew he was going to propose but me! I love him!
K. M., Lake Charles, Louisiana"
And for those of you saying she looked at the camera, she just looked up, possibly at one of the many people in the crowd yelling. I think it was real. At least the Rockets thought it was real.

I'm telling you, if you could have heard the dude's voice shaking when he was asking her you would not think it was fake.
