Phoenix Suns vs Sacramento Kings Prediction
The Suns are shutting down their best players and their 37.5 percent cover percentage is second worst in the NBA. The Kings need this game in terms of seeding and they’re 10-2 ATS in their last 12 games as a double-digit favorite. Massive line but for good reason. The Suns don’t cover numbers and don’t have the bodies to pose much of a threat to a Kings team that’s going to go all out for this victory. Give me the Kings in a blowout.
