Bulls at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 120, Bulls 111

Moneyline

In a Feb. 3 meeting, the Kings (-250) covered as 1-point underdogs with a 123-115 win at Chicago, led by 41 points from Fox.

The Bulls have failed to score 100 points in 2 of their last 3 games. They are 12-17 on the road this season.

The Kings are 16-10 at home but 3-3 in their last 6 at Golden 1 Center. They have a top-10 offense, averaging 118.2 points per game (PPG), and face a Bulls team that is 25th in the league in scoring at 111.7 PPG.

Expect the Kings to have the edge — especially if Fox is able to go — but don’t bet the Kings on the moneyline at -250. You won’t win enough money to make it worth your while.

PASS.

Against the spread

The Kings are only 10-14 ATS as home favorites, but the Bulls aren’t an obvious bet as road dogs at 10-11 ATS. The Kings have, though, covered the spread in 6 of their last 7 wins.

The Bulls have covered the spread only once in their last 8 losses.

BET KINGS -6.5 (-110).

Over/Under

The Feb. 3 meeting finished with 238 total points, blowing past the projection of 228.5.

Three of the last 4 for the Bulls, and 4 of the last 6, have stayed below the projection for this matchup.

However, 4 of the last 5 for the Kings have had totals higher than 227 points.

BET OVER 227.5 (-110).

Kings at Timberwolves picks and predictions

Prediction

Timberwolves 118, Kings 110

Moneyline

PASS.

The Timberwolves have been playing too well lately to think they’ll lose at home, but they certainly aren’t worth a moneyline play at -270.

Against the spread

LEAN TIMBERWOLVES +6.5 (-110).

The Kings have not covered well lately as an underdog. They are 2-4 ATS in their last 6 games as a dog. Sacramento relies heavily on Fox as well, and he may not be 100% even if he does take the court.

Minnesota sits as the 9th-best home-covering team in the NBA. It is 14-12-2 ATS, per teamrankings.com, at home. The T-wolves have been surging too, covering in 8 of their last 13 games.

Back TIMBERWOLVES +6.5 (-108).

Over/Under

BET OVER 224.5 (-110).

The T-wolves have gone Over in 5 of their last 9 games, and they have scored at least 120 points in 5 of those and at least 110 in 7 of them. The Kings play at a fast pace and are 31-27 O/U on the season.

Sacramento has scored at least 123 in 2 of its last 4 and has scored at least 120 in 5 of its last 9. The Kings are 6-3 O/U in their last 9 and should, sitting 11th in the league in pace, again look to run in this one.

Take OVER 224.5 (-110).

Sacramento Kings at Golden State Warriors odds, picks and predictions

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

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Sacramento Kings (2-1) visit the Golden State Warriors (3-1) on Wednesday. Tip from Chase Center is set for 10 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Kings vs. Warriors odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

Season series: Warriors lead 1-0

The Kings took down the Los Angeles Lakers 132-127 in overtime on Sunday to cover as 2.5-point home favorites. G De’Aaron Fox led all scorers with 37 points while F Domantas Sabonis tacked on a double-double (12 points, 15 rebounds). The Kings also got 22 points from G Malik Monk off the bench.

Golden State destroyed the New Orleans Pelicans 130-102 on Monday to cover as 3-point road underdogs. G Stephen Curry scored 42 points on 15-of-22 shooting and 7-of-13 shooting from 3. Playing without G Klay Thompson did not matter as 11 Warriors scored at least 5 points with 5 in double-digits.

Golden State beat Sacramento 122-114 last Friday to cover as 3.5-point road underdogs.

Kings at Warriors picks and predictions

Prediction

Warriors 116, Kings 107

Moneyline

PASS.

At -300 odds, the Warriors are the deserved favorites in this matchup after coming off a thrashing against the Pelicans and with the Kings missing Fox. The Warriors beat the Kings on the road mere days ago without Thompson and will have him back on Wednesday night.

Against the spread

BET WARRIORS -7.5 (-105).

As stated above, the Warriors have Thompson back while the Kings are missing Fox who has averaged 31.3 PPG this season. The Kings will have to rely on bench scoring to stay in this game and coming off an overtime game against the Lakers, will not have the stamina to stay involved. Do not be surprised Curry or Thompson catch fire given they are playing in front of their home crowd for just the 2nd time this season.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 226.5 (-110).

The Under is 6-3 in the last 9 matchups between the Kings and Warriors since last April. With Sacramento’s leading scorer out, it will be hard pressed to assist the point total forcing Golden State to carry the load. While Curry and company are capable of extending a lead and piling on points, expect a slower pace and less scoring for both sides.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Sacramento Kings (1-1) welcome the Los Angeles Lakers (1-1) to Golden 1 Center Sunday. Tip is set for 9 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Lakers vs. Kings odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

Season series: First meeting of 2023; Kings won 3 of 4 last season

The Kings beat the Utah Jazz 130-114 Wednesday, covering as 2-point road favorites in their season opener. Sacramento then lost in its home-opening match to the Golden State Warriors 122-114 Friday, failing to cover as a 3-point favorite. It is 1-1 against the spread (ATS). Sacramento is led by G De’Aaron Fox, who is averaging 28.5 points per game.

The Lakers lost to the Denver Nuggets 119-107 Tuesday to kick off the NBA season. Los Angeles failed to cover as a 5-point road underdog. It then beat the Phoenix Suns 100-95 Thursday, again failing to cover as a 6.5-point home favorite. The Lakers are 0-2 ATS and 0-2 O/U. They are led by F Anthony Davis, who is averaging 23.5 points per game.

Lakers at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 120, Lakers 112

Moneyline

PASS.

The Lakers are 0-1 on the road and only clawed out a home win over the short-handed Suns. Expect them to struggle, but at -140, the home side isn’t worth backing on the moneyline either.

Against the spread

BET KINGS -2.5 (-110).

The Lakers are 0-2 ATS while the Kings are 1-1 ATS. Los Angeles was 23-25-1 ATS last season on the road.

The more concerning part is that the Lakers sit 23rd in offensive rating while the Kings are at No. 5. The Lakers rank 25th in true shooting percentage, so offensively, this team won’t be able to keep up with the fast-paced Kings.

Take the far superior offense and back KINGS -2.5 (-110).

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 234.5 (-105).

The Kings are averaging 122 points per game, but the Lakers have an older roster and will take the air out of the ball.

Los Angeles ranks 18th in pace and 11th in defensive rating. It should be able to play its style of game, as did the Warriors when they took on the Kings Friday.

Given the potential style of play, take UNDER 234.5 (-105).

Golden State Warriors at Sacramento Kings odds, picks and predictions

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

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Golden State Warriors (0-1) face the Sacramento Kings (1-0) Friday. Tip-off from Golden 1 Center is at 10 p.m. ET (ESPN). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Warriors vs. Kings odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

Season series: First meeting of 2023; Warriors beat Kings 4-3 in 1st round of last season’s playoffs

The Warriors opened their season by failing to cover as 3-point home favorites in a 108-104 loss vs. the Phoenix Suns as the Under (235.5) hit Tuesday. G Stephen Curry led Golden State with 27 points, and G Chris Paul finished with 14 points and a game-high 9 assists in his Warriors debut.

The Kings covered as 2-point favorites with a 130-114 win at the Utah Jazz Wednesday as the Over (234) cashed. F Harrison Barnes had 33 points, and C Domantas Sabonis added 22 points and 12 rebounds.

The Warriors were 3-1 straight up and 1-3 against the spread (ATS) vs. the Kings in 4 regular season meetings in 2022-23. The Under went 2-1-1.

Warriors at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 118, Warriors 113

Moneyline

The Kings kicked off their season with a big win over Utah, while the Warriors faded late against a shorthanded Phoenix team missing G Bradley Beal.

Golden State was awful on the road in 2022-23, going 11-30 in the regular season. The Kings went 23-18 at home.

The Warriors did win their last 2 road games vs. Sacramento in the playoffs, but until they show consistency on the road — other than consistently bad — I’m not going to bet them to win, especially against 1 of the better teams in the Western Conference.

And with such a small spread, you get better value there.

PASS on the moneyline.

Against the spread

The Warriors were a dreadful 13-34 ATS on the road last season (including playoffs).

The Kings were only 20-24-1 ATS at home (including playoffs), but, again, until the Warriors show they are a different road team than last season, it is better to avoid betting them away from home.

BET KINGS -2.5 (-110).

Over/Under

In 2022-23, 3 of the 4 regular season meetings between the Warriors and Kings had fewer than 238 total points.

Four of the last 6 games between them in last season’s playoffs did not reach 235 total points.

BET UNDER 238.5 (-115).

Sacramento Kings at Utah Jazz odds, picks and predictions

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

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Utah Jazz welcome the Sacramento Kings to Delta Center Wednesday. Tip in the season opener for both teams is set for 9 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Kings vs. Jazz odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

Season series: First meeting of 2023

The Jazz were among the surprise teams in the league last season behind the eruption of F Lauri Markkanen. He averaged a career-high 25.6 points per game. They also added F John Collins, which should add another solid offensive weapon. Utah finished 12th in the NBA with a 37-45 record and were 23-18 at home.

The Kings also shocked most NBA fans, posting a 48-34 record, which was good for 3rd in the Western Conference. They were 25-16 on the road. Sacramento’s season ended when it lost to the Golden State Warriors in Game 7 of the 1st round of the playoffs. G De’Aaron Fox led the way last season, averaging 25.0 points and 6.1 assists per game.

Kings at Jazz picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 121, Jazz 114

Moneyline

BET KINGS (-125).

The Kings posted a 25-16 road record last season. Only 1 other team in the Western Conference, the LA Clippers at 21-20, was above .500 away from home. Sacramento has a balanced roster, and its quickness should present a problem for the Jazz’s backcourt.

The Kings were 16-5 straight up last season as a home favorite. The Jazz did add Collins, but how he will work as more of a score-first forward is yet to be seen. Utah’s defense should struggle without many lockdown defenders.

Take KINGS (-125).

Against the spread

PASS.

Take the stress out of it if the game comes down to the wire and play the moneyline given how similar the odds are.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 235.5 (-105).

As the market adjusted to the Jazz last season, their Over-covering rate cooled off, but they did manage a league-best 47-33-2 O/U. The Kings were 43-45-1 O/U.

However, neither team ranked top 10 in pace, and with such a high total in this 1st game, only considering going Over for a team that’s expected to get out and run frequently.

Take UNDER 235.5 (-105).

G Malik Monk had 28 points off the bench for the Kings and G De’Aaron Fox added 26 points and 11 assists. Sacramento covered for the entire game and won on the road vs. Golden State for the 1st time since Feb. 25, 2020.

Warriors at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 120, Warriors 111

Moneyline

PASS.

The Warriors have won just 11 road games this entire season. The Kings (-115) should win, but there is no need to pay the higher price on the moneyline when Sacramento would likely cover its short spread with a victory. Lay the points and/or bet the total instead.

Against the spread

BET KINGS -1.5 (-105).

The Warriors have been the least profitable away team ATS this season, covering at just 27.9% (12-31 ATS).

The Kings will be looking for their 1st playoff series win since 2004 and the home crowd may be overwhelming for a Warriors team that is just 16-38-1 ATS in its last 55 road games vs. teams with a winning home record.

Sacramento has been the better team this season and the market is undervaluing it due to the Warriors’ past success. The Kings should Light the Beam Sunday and score with ease vs. the Warriors’ 28th-ranked away defense.

Over/Under

BET OVER 230.5 (-110).

The Over is 38-14 in Golden State’s last 52 road games vs. teams with a winning home record and 25-11-1 in Sacramento’s last 37 at home vs. teams that are sub-.500 on the road.

The Over has hit in 5 of the Kings’ last 7 after a win by more than 10 points and should cash again Sunday as the Warriors continue to struggle defensively on the road.

G Stephen Curry scored a game-high 31 points as the Warriors won their 3rd straight after trailing 2-0 in the series.

Warriors 125, Kings 106

Moneyline

PASS.

The Warriors (-300) should close out the series Friday at Chase Center, but there is no need to pay the higher price on the moneyline when Golden State should win by margin. Bet the spread and/or total instead.

Against the spread

BET WARRIORS -7.5 (-110).

The Warriors are much more dangerous at home and are 40-17-1 ATS in their last 58 home games. Golden State should come out extra focused to close out the series at Chase Center and avoid playing a Game 7 on the road. Sacramento is a young team and may lack confidence after losing 3 straight games to the defending NBA champions. Look for Golden State to secure a double-digit lead early and to not let Sacramento back in the game.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 236.5 (-110).

The Under is 5-1 in Sacramento’s last 6 games after scoring 100 or more points in its previous contest and 4-1 in its last 5 on the road.

The Under has gone 17-7-1 in Golden State’s last 25 vs. teams with a winning record and should hit again Friday as the Warriors tighten up defensively to avoid playing a Game 7 on the road.

Warriors at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Warriors 120, Kings 111

Moneyline

PASS.

The Warriors (-125) should be able to finally pull out a road win in this series, but there is no need to pay the higher price on the moneyline when Golden State would likely cover its short spread with a win. Lay the points and/or bet the total instead.

Against the spread

BET WARRIORS -1.5 (-110).

Golden State will need to win 1 road game in this series in order to advance and it will have the advantage in Game 5 after Fox’s injury. The Warriors appear to be extra confident and back in playoff form after consecutive victories vs. the Kings and should be able to finally win a game on the road.

Golden State is 5-2 ATS in its last 7 games after failing to cover in its previous contest and Sacramento should struggle to stay competitive after Fox’s injury.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 234.5 (-110).

Golden State bounces back defensively after underwhelming performances and the Under is 6-1 in the Warriors’ last 7 games after failing to cover. The Under is 6-2 in Sacramento’s last 8 games and 4-0 in its last 4 after covering in its previous contest.

The Under has gone 4-1-1 in the last 6 meetings between these teams in Sacramento and should hit again in Game 5 as the Warriors tighten up defensively after allowing 33 points in the 4th quarter last time out.

Kings at Warriors picks and predictions

Prediction

Warriors 117, Kings 114

Moneyline

PASS.

Golden State (-350) has the 3rd-best winning percentage at home this season at 81% and should be able to pull out another win. However, the Warriors are being slightly overvalued on the moneyline vs. the Kings who are 4th in road-win percentage at 59.5%. Bet the spread and/or total instead.

Against the spread

BET KINGS +7.5 (-110).

The Kings are 1st in offensive efficiency this season and should bounce back after getting blown out while scoring just 97 points last time out. Sacramento is 4-1 ATS in its last 5 games after a loss by more than 10 points and 11-3 ATS in its last 14 on the road. The Warriors should let down after such a dominant performance and are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games after a win by more than 10 points.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 237.5 (-115).

The Under is 6-1 in Sacramento’s last 7 games and 4-0 in its last 4 on the road.

The Under has gone 9-3-1 in Golden State’s last 13 home games and 4-1-1 in the last 6 meetings between these teams. Look for Game 4 to be another low-scoring affair, especially with Golden State’s best 2 defenders expected to return.
