Sacramento Kings vs LA Clippers Prediction

The Clippers have turned things around with a 4-0 SU and ATS record in their last 4 games. The vibes are better, players look happier, and the defense has improved. The Kings still suck. However, let’s not overreact just yet. The Clippers still have just 10 wins on the season and are 12-19 ATS overall. The underdog has covered 7 of the last 10 games between the Kings and Clippers. The Kings do have 3 outright wins this season as a double-digit underdog. I’m just not ready to lay this many points with the Clippers just because they’ve had one hot week. Give me the points with the Kings.
