Milwaukee Bucks vs Sacramento Kings Prediction
The Bucks still have the best player on the floor and they’ve won nine of the last 10 games against the Kings. You can talk yourself into the free bucket. However, the Bucks will be without Lillard, and this has already been an inconsistent team that recently had a players meeting. The Bucks have lost 18 times on the road. The Kings are in awful form with losses in five of their last seven games, but they’re at home and need a win to stop the bleeding a bit. The Kings don’t want to keep losing and allow the Suns to pass them in the play-in standings. Nothing would surprise me in this matchup, but I’ll lay the points with the Kings.
