Sacramento Kings vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction
The Mavericks are back to being one of the most injured teams in the league, which includes losing Anthony Davis for possibly a month. The Mavs got the whole AD experience in one game. We're also seeing Washington and Christie as questionable. The Kings don't have a single player on their injury report, and they're better than what they've shown these past weeks. Given the health situation of both teams, you can argue the wrong team is favored. Give me the Kings and the free bucket.
