Kings vs Knicks Predictions and Picks
Sacramento is currently 28th in points, 27th in points allowed, and 29th in point differential. Russell Westbrook leads the team in assists per game. The Kings are 3-19 on the road and 4-6 in their last 10 games. Three of the past five losses were by double digits. The scoring is there for them, but the defense is struggling big time, allowing an average of 121.1 points per game, which is the fourth highest in the NBA. They are still without Keegan Murray and that hurts their interior presence and rebounding.
New York is currently eighth in points, 10th in points allowed, and eighth in point differential. Brunson leads the team in points per game and assists per game. The Knicks are 17-6 at home and 4-6 in their last 10 games. New York has regained momentum with back-to-back wins and both sides of the ball are trending up. The Knicks are completely healthy again, with Brunson fully returned from a brief mid-January ankle injury to lead the offense alongside Karl-Anthony Towns and OG Anunoby.
Best Bet: Under
The Kings are missing some good scorers and can still put up a decent amount of points, but they will be going up against a very balanced Knicks team. New York is healthy and trying to get some easy wins back after a short losing streak.
