Season series: Kings lead 2-0

These teams have each covered once in 2 meetings this season, and the Over has gone 2-0. The Spurs covered as 10.5-point underdogs in the most recent meeting Feb. 22, a 127-122 Kings win in Sacramento.

The Kings beat the Los Angeles Lakers on the road 130-120 Wednesday, covering as 3-point underdogs. They have won 2 of their last 3 yet have lost 3 of their last 5. Sacramento is 31-29-1 against the spread (ATS) on the season and 4-6 ATS over its last 10. It is led by G De’Aaron Fox, who is averaging 27.1 points per game (PPG).

The Spurs lost to the Houston Rockets 114-101 Tuesday, failing to cover as 7-point road underdogs. San Antonio has won 2 of its last 3 yet has lost 6 of its last 8. The Spurs are 30-32 ATS on the season and 5-2 ATS over their last 7. They are led by rookie F Victor Wembanyama, who is averaging 20.7 PPG and will be out Thursday with an ankle injury.

Spurs at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 122, Spurs 107

Moneyline

PASS.

The Spurs without their best player against 1 of the best teams in the Western Conference doesn’t sound like a great combination for the road side. Neither team is worth a play on the moneyline here.

Against the spread

LEAN KINGS -11 (-110).

Wembanyama brings an unparalleled size to the court, and he went for 19 points, 13 rebounds, 5 blocks and 5 steals the last time these teams played. His absence will sting and open up the court for Fox to operate. The Spurs are just 4-6 ATS in their last 10 road games.

The Kings haven’t covered well as double-digit underdogs, but the absence of Wemby will unlock the potential for C Domantas Sabonis to get easy buckets in the paint. Expect the home side to take this one with ease and back KINGS -11 (-110).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 237 (-112).

The Under is a strong play for both sides. The Kings have scored 110 or fewer in 2 of their last 4 games and have traded off going Over and Under in 9 straight games, most recently going Over in their win against the Lakers Wednesday.

They are also on the 2nd night of a back-to-back and may not push the tempo if they’re leading by a sizable margin. The Spurs have gone Under in 4 of their last 5 games and are 3-14-1 O/U in their last 18 games. Back UNDER 237 (-112).

Spurs at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 135, Spurs 115

Moneyline

PASS.

Sacramento (-1600) has won 5 straight meetings vs. San Antonio and should have no problem beating the shorthanded Spurs, but there is no need to pay the higher price on the moneyline when the Kings should win by margin. Bet the spread and/or total instead.

Against the spread

BET KINGS -16.5 (-115).

Sacramento is sending out a much healthier lineup and although the Spurs lost at the Warriors, they may still experience a letdown after a very respectable performance vs. the defending NBA champions. Sacramento has been playing above expectation lately and is 7-2 ATS in its last 9 games while coming off 2 blowout wins at the shorthanded Trail Blazers. The Kings have been beating up on inferior competition lately and should do so once again vs. San Antonio.

Over/Under

BET OVER 243.5 (-110).

This number is a little high but since this game will likely be a blowout there should be a lot of meaningless scoring in the 4th quarter. The Over is 4-1 in San Antonio’s last 5 vs. teams with a winning record and 5-1 in Sacramento’s last 6 vs. teams with a winning percentage below .400. Look for this game to soar over the total late while all the backups play for future roster spots.

San Antonio Spurs at Sacramento Kings odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s San Antonio Spurs at Sacramento Kings odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The San Antonio Spurs (6-9) visit the Sacramento Kings (7-6) Thursday for a 10 p.m. ET tip-off from Golden 1 Center. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Spurs vs. Kings odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Spurs come into this one on a 2-game slide with their most recent loss Tuesday at the Portland Trail Blazers 117-110, but they did cover as 8.5-point underdogs. C Jakob Poeltl carried the load offensively with 31 points on 14-for-17 shooting. It was a very close battle in all of the major statistics, but in the end it was the lack of 3-point shooting that lost the game for the Spurs — they shot 31% (9-for-29) behind the arc compared the Blazers’ 46.9% (15-for-32).

The Kings are playing their best basketball in years. They’ve won 4 straight and 3 of those wins came against teams that were thought of as championship contenders. Their most recent win was Tuesday as 1.5-point favorites against the Brooklyn Nets in a 153-121 outing. The Kings had 7 players score in double figures that game, including 31 points from G Terence Davis, who shot 7-for-10 from 3.

Spurs at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 126, Spurs 118

Moneyline

AVOID.

The Kings (-290) are rolling right now and should win this game, which is why I would steer clear of this costly moneyline. The upset pick — Spurs (+240) — is one I would like if we were looking at the Kings of the first week of the season when they opened 0-4, but they’ve won 7 of 9 since, playing some outstanding basketball. Expect that to continue against a lackluster San Antonio squad.

Against the spread

LEAN KINGS -7.5 (-110).

There is a fair amount of risk associated with this bet.

The Spurs’ mix of terrible defense and mediocre offense is what makes me lean toward the Kings covering the spread Thursday. The Kings have looked phenomenal as of late and have blown out teams that are much better than this Spurs team. Expect the Kings to win by a good margin and cover the 7.5 spread at home.

Over/Under

BET OVER 236.5 (-110) is the BEST BET for this game.

The Spurs and Kings both have bottom-4 defenses in the NBA in terms of opponent points per game, with the Kings allowing 117.0 to rank 27th and the Spurs allowing a league-worst 119.5. Couple that with the fact that the Kings have the 2nd-highest scoring offense (119.5 PPG) in the NBA and the Spurs are in the middle of the pack (112.0 PPG), and we have a recipe for a high-scoring shootout.
