Sacramento Kings at Golden State Warriors odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Sacramento Kings at Golden State Warriors odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Sacramento Kings (13-18) travel to Chase Center Monday to take on the Golden State Warriors (24-6). Tip-off is scheduled for 10p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Kings vs. Warriors odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.

The Warriors have yet to have a game canceled, but they’ll be without two of their top three scorers.

While the team is deep, without key starters, they were destroyed by the Raptors 119-100 Saturday. Golden State has been the second-best team ATS at 18-10-2, but their health is concerning.

As for the Kings, PG De’Aaron Fox is still in health and safety protocols, so he’ll miss time. Sacramento is just 14-17 ATS this season. Even at full strength, the Kings have one of the NBA’s worst defenses, which has plagued them for most of the season.

Kings at Warriors odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Warriors 110, Kings 104

Money line

PASS. At -1100, there’s no chance I bet a team down two of its top three scorers. For the Kings, down Fox is enough to make an upset improbable.

Against the spread

LEAN KINGS +12.5 (-110) as Fox’s absence will spark new opportunity.

Against the Spurs Sunday, PG Tyrese Haliburton and SG Buddy Hield controlled the majority of the offense. They’re quality shot makers, and without Poole or Wiggins, the Warriors may struggle to tame them.

The Warriors have the best defense in the league, but again, without Wiggins, who has been a crux for them on that end of the court, it could be completely different. The Kings have the second-worst defense in the NBA, but the Warriors absences should give them a slight break.

The health and safety issues will plague this game, and that should bode well for Sacramento bettors. Considering their offensive firepower and what Golden State is missing, it’s easy to envision them covering the spread in this one.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 221.5 (-107) as both teams are missing key pieces to their team. The Warriors will be asking players like SG Damion Lee and SF Otto Porter Jr., both of whom have struggled to score at times this season, to step up.

With PF Draymond Green the leader of the defense still active, he should have his way. Haliburton is also a quality, lengthy defender who should get the challenge of guarding Curry.

With the Warriors missing what could be four starters, I’d look to fewer points as both teams are playing lineups unfamiliar with each other and will be without key scorers.
