Sacramento Kings vs LA Clippers Prediction
I don’t want to back the Kings as much as the next guy, but they are rested and there’s always motivation for some of those players to stick it to the Clippers. As good as the Clippers have been in turning their season around, they’re an old team on the end of a back-to-back. The underdog has covered in 6 of the last 8 games between the Clippers and Kings. I’ll take a stab with the boatload of points on Saturday night.
