Los Angeles Lakers vs Sacramento Kings Prediction, Odds & Picks

Just 2 days after beating the Kings 113-100, the Lakers are now 6.5 point underdogs against the same team in the same building. Neither team had the best nights shooting the ball, the Lakers were able to utilize their rebounding and defense in general to win. It was just the 4th time in 14 road games that the Lakers covered the spread this year, there’s a chance some players will be rested here as Rui Hachimura, Anthony Davis and LeBron James are all game-time decisions.

Meanwhile, the Kings have now dropped 2 in a row after a 3-game winning streak. Consistency is what has eluded this team all year. It was an unusually quiet game on the offensive end Thursday as they managed just 100 points, their fourth-lowest of the season. Expect them to make adjustments for Saturday’s game, a quicker pace is something that would benefit them here. With the offensive firepower on their roster, it’s pretty clear that this team is at its best when the ball moves and they play fast.

Thursday’s game was an outlier in many ways. The Kings and Lakers have scored over 8 times in the last 12 games between them, averaging 245.5 points per game. match scored in the last 10 meetings. Sacramento’s three-ball has cooled off a bit, but that will have to change at some point. They have gone 5-1 on O/U at Golden 1 Center in their last 6 games, so I believe that trend will continue here. Go back.
