The Boston Celtics play host to the Sacramento Kings at the TD Garden on Friday night. Here’s a Sacramento Kings vs Boston Celtics Prediction. This article will include a Sacramento Kings vs Boston Celtics Pick.
Sacramento KingsÂ
The Sacramento Kings have been a team on the rise as they are now gunning for a sixth straight victory after outlasting the Heat in a thrilling 123-118 double-overtime win on Monday. DeMar DeRozan led the team with 30 points, Malik Monk added 23 points with six assists, Domantas Sabonis tallied a triple-double of 21 points with 18 rebounds and 11 assists while Keon Ellis chipped in with 17 points. As a team, the Kings shot just 41 percent from the field and 13 of 38 from the 3-point line as they rallied back from a 17-point deficit to force overtime, where they finally eventually escaped with the gritty win. The Kings will meet the Bulls after this game.
Boston CelticsÂ
Meanwhile, the Boston Celtics have been in pretty good shape as they’ve won four of their last five games overall and they will be looking to stay hot after taking down the red-hot Nuggets in a 118-106 road win on Tuesday. Jayson Tatum led the team with 29 points and six assists, Kristaps Porzingis added 25 points with 11 rebounds while Jrue Holiday chipped in with 19 points and seven assists. As a team, the Celtics shot 50 percent from the field and 12 of 35 from the 3-point line. The Celtics stormed out of the gates with 37 points in the first quarter to take the early lead and they just kept piling on the points in the second half despite an off-shooting night from their bench players.Â

Sacramento Kings vs Boston Celtics Prediction
The Kings could be a little shorthanded for this one with De’Aaron Fox listed as questionable, while the Celtics have ruled out Drew Peterson and they have Jordan Walsh as questionable with an illness. The Kings have really looked like a different team during this win streak and they would’ve gained so much confidence from their double-overtime win over the Heat back on Monday. I like their chances against this Celtics team, who are so hard to beat at home. I’m not saying the Kings win this one, but I think they can at least keep this one to single digits in the end.
