Sacramento Kings vs LA Clippers Prediction

The Clippers are rested and coming off a couple of nice wins to right the ship a bit, but we can’t ignore these last few weeks overall. The Clippers have still lost six of their last 10 games and have just two covers during that span. The Kings are down two of their better players, but they’ve won seven of their last 10 games and have seven covers during that span. It’s the Kings that are playing the better ball currently and cashing more tickets. The underdog has covered five of the last eight games between the Clippers and Kings. I’ll take a shot with the points and the Kings on Sunday.
