Sacramento Kings vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction

I’m not excited to lay points with a Grizzlies team that has a lengthy injury report, but backing the Kings in their current form isn’t an option. The Kings haven’t won a game in over a month, and they’re 21-35-2 ATS on the season. The Kings were favored against the Grizzlies at home earlier this month and lost in a game where they allowed 129 points. Backing the Kings just isn’t an option. At home, I’m going to lay the points with the Grizzlies, but it’s a fade of the Kings more than anything.
