Golden State Warriors Betting Preview
The Golden State Warriors beat the Clippers in their opener and play the Kings again on Friday. The Golden State Warriors have won 14 of their last 17 preseason games. The Golden State Warriors are averaging 91 points on 33.7 percent shooting and allowing 90 points on 38.5 percent shooting. Lindy Waters III is averaging 15 points and 1 assist, while Moses Moody is averaging 12 points and 1 assist. Stephen Curry is dishing 2 assists and De’Anthony Melton is grabbing 2 rebounds. The Golden State Warriors are shooting 229 percent from beyond the arc and 73.7 percent from the free throw line. The Golden State Warriors are allowing 22.9 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 56 rebounds per game.
Sacramento Kings Betting Preview
The Sacramento Kings won 46 games last season and enter the third year under coach Mike Brown. The Kings have made the playoffs just once since the 2006-07 season.
The Kings made a splashy move by adding DeMar DeRozan, and that gives them another scoring option. Domantas Sabonis is one of the more underrated centers in the league, and De’Aaron Fox has established himself as an all star caliber point guard. Keegan Murray has shown some things in his first two seasons, and Keon Ellis is posed for a breakthrough season. A full year of Kevin Huerter wouldn’t hurt either. The Kings have enough to make a rare playoff spot and could win a round or two if things break well. The fans have to be desperate at this point.
Golden State Warriors vs Sacramento Kings Prediction
The Golden State Warriors have the edge given that they have a game under their belt already, but they didn’t play their key players much, and it’s fair to wonder if that will be the case again. The Sacramento Kings have to be eager to finally take the court, as it’s just them and Portland who haven’t played in the preseason yet. At home and against a rival, I expect the Kings to be up for this game. Preseason or not. I’ll lay the bucket with the Kings at home.
