Sacramento Kings vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction

The Sacramento Kings have won three straight games so maybe this is them finally turning the corner. Unfortetly, we’ve seen so much inconsistent ball that it’s going to take more than a decent week to convince anybody. The Kings are also 22-34-3 ATS on the season. The Mavs have been at their best at home where they have 19 wins on the season. The Mavs should also have revenge on their mind after losing to the Kings at home in overtime less than a month ago. The line is reasonable. If it wasn’t, maybe I’d consider the Kings. I’ll lay the bucket with the Mavericks at home.
