The Sacramento Kings were tied for 10th in the Western Conference with a record of 28-36 when the 2019-20 NBA season was suspended. Below, we look at the BetMGM betting odds of the Kings winning the NBA Championship once play resumes with a 22-team format in Orlando, Fla., later this summer.
Sacramento Kings season recap
Sacramento benefits from their being close enough to compete and move up to the eighth or ninth spot in the conference. They are in a virtual tie with the Portland Trail Blazers and New Orleans Pelicans for the ninth seed.
They have had some rough patches during the season, including an eight-game losing streak and two five-game skids as well. They are under .500 both at home (14-17) and on the road (14-19). They have eight players averaging double figures in points this season, led by PG De’Aaron Fox’s 20.4 points per game and SG Buddy Hield’s 19.8 PPG.
In terms of betting, they were just above .500 against the spread, going 33-29-2, while posting a 34-30 Over/Under record.

Odds provided by BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Thursday, June 18 at 4:50 a.m. ET.
The Kings are one of the longest shots to win the title at +50000. They aren’t even a sure thing to even make it to the playoffs or even the play-in series to earn a chance to play the No. 1 seed. They are a nice young team, but NOT WORTH A BET AT ALL. This is a straight PASS.
Sacramento Kings Western Conference odds
The Kings’ odds to win the Western Conference and play in the NBA Finals aren’t much better than their odds to win the title. Their odds to win the West are +30000. Since they aren’t even a sure bet to actually be in the playoffs, they ARE NOT A GOOD BET to be conference champions.
