The Sacramento Kings are down bad. They have just three wins dating all the way back to late November, including the last six in a row.
Things won’t get easier any time soon, as the Kings are massive 14.5-point underdogs when they visit Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors on Friday night.
And you might have guessed it, but the NBA picks in my Kings vs. Warriors predictions are fading Sac-town in this Western Conference clash.
Kings vs Warriors prediction
Kings vs Warriors best bet: Steph Curry Over 29.5 points (-110)
Basically, Domantas Sabonis got hurt, and everything went to shit, exposing this flawed Sacramento Kings roster. The defensive end of the floor may have been hit hardest.
Sacramento has the third-worst defensive rating and opponent effective field goal percentage, with opposing guards doing most of the damage, allowing the second-most points per game.
Oh, and the Golden State Warriors have this guy you may have heard of: Steph Curry.
Curry has been on fire since Christmas, averaging 30.2 points while shooting 39.1% from three over his last six games, topping 29.5 points three times. Tonight, Curry cooks the Kings and does it again.
