Dallas Mavericks at Sacramento Kings odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Dallas Mavericks at Sacramento Kings odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Dallas Mavericks (43-29) face the Sacramento Kings (42-30) for the 2nd game in a row on the road Friday night. Tip-off is at 10 p.m. ET at Golden 1 Center. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Mavericks vs. Kings odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

Season series: Kings lead 2-1

The Mavericks have won 5 straight games and 9 of their last 10 overall. They beat the Kings on Tuesday 132-96 as 1-point road underdogs as G Krie Irving, G Luke Doncic and G Tim Hardaway Jr. all scored 22 points or more. They currently hold the No. 6 seed in the Western Conference, the final guaranteed playoff spot, by a half-game over the Phoenix Suns.

The Kings’ loss on Tuesday to the Mavs snapped a 2-game winning streak. They have won 4 of 6 and 6 of 9. They are 8th in the West, half a game behind Phoenix and would have to play the Suns on the road in a play-in game if the season ended today.

Mavericks at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 111, Mavericks 108

Moneyline

The Mavs are red hot, having won 9 of their last 10 games, but the Kings have not lost consecutive games in over a month, last losing 2 in a row on Feb. 26 and 28. The Kings also have not lost consecutive home games in a homestand all season. They will bounce back.

The Kings are 21-14 at home and the Mavs have the identical road mark.

Since the odds for the win are nearly identical to the odds to cover, don’t risk the possibility of a 1-point win.

BET KINGS (-115).

Against the spread

The Kings have covered the spread in 5 of their last 6 wins while the Mavs are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games.

But this game is nearly a pick’em.

A matchup like this is perfect for picking the moneyline. And while the Mavs are the hotter team, as mentioned, the Kings have not lost consecutive games in a homestand.

You can stick to the moneyline or get a few more bucks with KINGS -1.5 (-105).

Either bet is fine.

Over/Under

Their 1st 2 meetings this season surpassed 230 total points. The total fell just shy of that on Tuesday with 228.

The Mavs have not allowed more than 107 points in their last 5 games and in 7 of their last 8.

The Kings have not surpassed 109 in their last 4.

BET UNDER 232.5 (-115).

Dallas Mavericks at Sacramento Kings odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Dallas Mavericks at Sacramento Kings odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Dallas Mavericks (42-29) make the 2nd stop on a 5-game road trip on Tuesday against the Sacramento Kings (42-29). Tip-off at Golden 1 Center is scheduled for 10 p.m. ET (TNT). Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Mavericks vs. Kings odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

Season series: Kings lead 2-0; Sacramento is 2-0 against the spread (ATS) with the Under going 2-0

The Mavericks picked up a 115-105 win in Salt Lake City against the Utah Jazz on Monday, then hopped the team DSG Aviation team plane to Sacramento, arriving into California’s capital city at 11:28 p.m. PDT. It was a late night for the Mavs getting into the team hotel.

When playing on no rest, the Mavs are 5-5 straight up (SU) this season, but 2 of those losses came against the Kings in the 2nd end of a back-to-back. Dallas is 7-3 ATS in those 10 games on no rest, but again, 0-2 ATS in the games when facing the Kings after playing the night before.

The Kings posted a 108-96 win as a 7.5-point favorite against the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night. Sacramento has won 4 of the past 5 games, while covering 3 of the past 4.

On no rest, Sacramento has won 6 of the past 8 games outright, while the Kings are 4-8 ATS in 12 games when playing the night before.

Mavericks at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 114, Mavericks 109

Moneyline

The Kings (-112) aren’t worth playing on the moneyline with such a small spread. There is no sense paying the extra juice when you can lay the little bit of points and pay less.

AVOID.

Against the spread

The KINGS -1 (-110) are slightly cheaper laying the little bit of points. Even if this line were to move to as many as 2 points, it’s still a better play to lay the points.

The Mavericks +1 (-110) have been on fire lately, going 8-1 ATS in the past 9 games, while winning the past 4 outings. However, Sacramento has been the kryptonite of Dallas, winning and covering both meetings to date, and each of those victories by the Kings came when the Mavericks are playing with no rest.

Over/Under

UNDER 233 (-110) is the play on Tuesday night in California’s capital city.

The Under cashed for both sides on Monday night in their respective games. In fact, Dallas has cashed the Under in 4 in a row, while going 6-1 in the past 7 outings. Sacramento went low Monday, cashing the Under for the 4th straight outing, while the Under is 8-1 in the past 9 games.

And in this series, the Under has cashed in 3 straight meetings, including both meetings this season, while hitting at a 7-3 pace in the past 10 encounters.

Mavericks at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 117, Mavericks 113

Moneyline

Assuming Doncic is inactive again for the Mavericks, the KINGS (-135) are who I’d side with in this contest. Even with G Kyrie Irving adding firepower to the offense, Dallas could struggle to score points without Doncic.

Against the spread

KINGS -1.5 (-105) is another wager I’d make if Doncic is ruled out for a 4th consecutive game. Sacramento is a solid 16-11 at home, while Dallas is 11-17 on the road this season.

The Kings are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 home games against a team with a losing road record. The Mavericks are also 8-23-1 ATS in the last 32 meetings against the Kings.

Over/Under

UNDER 233.5 (-110) is the lean assuming Doncic isn’t playing for the Mavericks. Outside of Irving, Dallas doesn’t have many consistent scoring options available that should cause Sacramento issues.

The Under is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings in Sacramento and 7-1 in the last 8 meetings overall.

Dallas Mavericks at Sacramento Kings odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Wednesday’s Dallas Mavericks at Sacramento Kings odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Dallas Mavericks (16-17) face the Sacramento Kings (14-21) Wednesday night for the first of two games in three days against them on the road. Tip-off for Wednesday’s game is at 10:30 p.m. ET at Golden 1 Center. Below, we look at the Mavericks vs. Kings odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.

The Mavericks split the first two games of their five-game road trip, most recently beating the Portland Trail Blazers 132-117 Monday night. But they have lost four of their last six games and are missing G Luka Doncic.

The Kings are on the fourth game of their homestand and picked up a 117-111 win Tuesday night over the Oklahoma City Thunder. It ended a three-game losing streak. G Tyrese Haliburton had 24 points and 10 assists, and G Buddy Hield added 21 points in the win.

Mavericks at Kings odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Mavericks 108, Kings 103

Money line

Before the Mavs’ win on Monday, their previous two victories were followed up by two losses. They are 2-4 in their last six games.

But the Kings have only three wins in their last 10 games. The Mavericks won their first matchup 105-99 Oct. 31.

Take the MAVERICKS (-140).

Against the spread

The Kings have not covered the spread in any loss since Nov. 2. Over that span, every win has been a cover and every loss has not.

The Mavericks have covered the spread in six of their last eight games despite only being 16-17 ATS overall. They are 8-7 ATS when favored.

Since I expect a Dallas win straight up and the spread is so small, you have to take the same team to cover or you are predicting a one-point win.

Take the MAVERICKS -2.5 (-110).

Over/Under

Four of the last five games for Dallas have gone Over the projected total. However, they have the third-lowest Over percentage in the league at 38.7%.

Seven of the last 11 for the Kings have hit the Over but prior to their win Tuesday night, they had averaged only 96.3 points in their previous three games.

Dallas allows the sixth-fewest points in the league.

Take UNDER 220.5 (-115).

The Dallas Mavericks (33-26) travel to meet the Sacramento Kings (24-36) Monday at Golden 1 Center. Tip-off is set for a 10 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze the Mavericks-Kings odds and lines, with NBA picks and predictions.

The Mavericks are coming off a two-game sweep of the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers, and they covered the spread in both of those outings, too. Dallas has won three in a row since a 121-107 loss at home against the Kings.

Sacramento is coming off a 117-113 road loss to the Golden State Warriors Sunda; the Kings covered the spread as 7.5-point underdogs. They’re an impressive 3-1-1 against the spread across their past five outings, including the win in Dallas April 18.

Mavericks at Kings: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Kings 116, Mavericks 109

Money line (ML)

The KINGS (+180) are attractive live dogs at home, with a chance to nearly double up if they can pick up the victory. I think the Mavericks are too dinged up, with three key players nursing injuries.

Even if Doncic, Porzingis and/or Kleber are able to play for the visitors, the Kings rolled to a 121-107 victory in the most recent meeting and are a good play Monday.

Play our new free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Against the spread (ATS)

If you’re not quite feeling the home side straight up, take the KINGS +5.5 (-110) catching two buckets at home.

The Mavericks are just 2-5 ATS in their past seven games as favorites, and 0-4 ATS in their past four games against losing teams. On the flip side, the Kings are 3-1-1 ATS in their past five games, and 4-1 ATS in their past five against winning teams.

Over/Under (O/U)

UNDER 227.5 (-110) is the lean, but go lightly.

The Under is an impressive 21-10 in the past 31 for Dallas. Again, watch for the final injury report before making a determination. Even if everyone is healthy, the trends point to the Under which is also 4-1 in Sacto’s past five as a dog.
