San Antonio Spurs vs Sacramento Kings Prediction

The Spurs obviously have the horses to blow the doors off but they’re also a young team on the end of a back-to-back. The Kings are rested and at home and while they have nothing to play for, they’ve quietly won 4 of their last 5 games. The last time the Kings were double-digit underdogs, they won outright. We’re seeing a lot of inflated lines in the NBA for this card and I’m just not eager to leave all of these points on the table. Give me the Kings.
