Nets at Kings picks and predictionsPrediction

Kings 115, Nets 107

PASS.

Avoid this play. The Kings (-196) are the hotter side and should come out on top; however, Sacramento certainly isn’t worth almost 2 times your money here.

BET KINGS -4.5 (-108).

Sacramento, for what its record indicates, has drastically exceeded expectations in the last 14 days. Since March 8, it is 4-3 straight up and has gone 3-1 ATS in games with a single-digit spread. It is 2-0 ATS as an underdog in that span.

The Nets have covered somewhat well recently, but their offense has been atrocious, scoring under 100 points in 5 straight games. They have the lowest average in the lague at 106.2 points per game. Brooklyn has lost 4 of its last 6 games by double figures.

BET OVER 218.5 (-110).

The Kings’ defense has been awful as of late, allowing at least 132 points in 2 straight games and at least 109 points in every game (23) since Jan. 27. Sacramento has gone Over in 3 of its last 5 games.

The Nets offense has had its own woes, but they should be able to score on a weak Kings’ defense. They’ve allowed at least 114 points in 2 of their last 3 outings.
