Pacers at Kings picks and predictionsPrediction
Kings 126, Pacers 120
The 2 worst teams in the NBA come in struggling. The Pacers have lost 9 straight games, while the Kings are 3-20 in their last 23 games.
The Pacers have an awful 5-27 road mark, but Sacramento’s 10-22 home record doesn’t give confidence.
With both teams missing their best players and both teams struggling, you have to give the edge to the home team, so the Kings should pick up the win, but the spread gives you better value than betting the Kings to win outright.
PASS.
The Pacers’ last 6 losses have been by double figures. They are 0-9 ATS in their losing streak. They have not covered the spread in their last 12 losses.
The KIngs are home favorites for only the sixth time all season. They are 2-3 ATS in such games.
BET KINGS -2.5 (-115).
The total in their December matchup was 221.
The Pacers have allowed 125 or more points in 8 straight games. The Kings have allowed over 120 points in 7 of their last 10 games.
BET OVER 236.5 (-115).
