Oklahoma City Thunder vs Sacramento Kings Prediction
The Sacramento Kings are on the end of a back-to-back and should be up for this game at home, but it’s hard to back them under three straight losses. The Kings just lost to the Nets last night as double-digit favorites. No, thanks. The Oklahoma City Thunder are the better team with the rest advantage, and they’re a profitable 9-6-1 ATS on the season. You could argue this line should be a lot steeper than it is. Give me the Thunder.
