Suns at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 125, Suns 119

Moneyline

The Suns have only 3 wins in their last 10 games. They have lost 3 of 4 and, in addition to missing Beal, will not have Nurkic in the lineup to guard C Domantas Sabonis.

The Kings are 10-4 at home this season and have beaten the Suns in 3 straight meetings. But the -160 odds are just a little to pricy to bet with the spread only 3.5 points.

PASS.

Against the spread

The Kings are 12-7 ATS when favored in games this season while the Suns are 1-9 ATS in their last 10 games and are 3-5 ATS as underdogs.

Seven of the Suns' last 8 losses have been by 4 or more points.

BET KINGS -3.5 (-110).

Over/Under

Both teams have had the Over hit more often than the Under. Phoenix is 16-11 O/U while Sacramento is 15-11 O/U.

The Kings have scored 119 or more in 4 straight games and 3 of their last 4 games have surpassed the projected total for this game. Only 1 of the Suns' last 10 games has surpassed Friday's projected total.

BET UNDER 242.5 (-105).
