Why the Sacramento Kings will win

  • The Jazz have lost 20 of their last 21 games against teams that held a winning record.
  • The favorites have won each of the last eight games between the Jazz and Kings at Golden 1 Center.
  • The Jazz have failed to cover the spread in each of their last seven games as underdogs against opponents who are on the second leg of a back-to-back.
  • The favorites have covered the spread in each of the last four games between the Jazz and Kings.

Total Points Facts

  • Twelve of the Kings’ last 13 home games against opponents who are on the first leg of a back-to-back have gone OVER the total points line.
  • Four of the Jazz’s last five games at Golden 1 Center following a home win have gone UNDER the total points line.

Utah Jazz vs Sacramento Kings Prediction

I considered the Jazz and the points because the Kings are on the end of a back-to-back. However, the Jazz aren’t good at either SU or ATS. The Kings are also 7-1 SU and 5-3 ATS in the last 8 games against the Jazz. The Kings beat the Jazz by 17 points a couple of weeks ago. The Jazz aren’t a good team on either side of the floor, and it makes it hard to get behind them with confidence. Give me the Kings in a comfortable home victory.
