Kings at Bulls picks and predictions
Prediction
Kings 116, Bulls 110
Moneyline
BET KINGS (+110).
The Kings have won 5 of their last 6 games overall, including 4 of their last 5 on the road. They face a Bulls team that is 2-3 in their last 5 and 1-2 in their last 3 home games. The Bulls are dealing with an array of injuries that will limit their pace and defense. Chicago has scored 117 points or fewer in 4 of its last 5 games, while the Kings have scored at least 120 in 5 of their last 7. Expect Sabonis and Sacramento to overwhelm Chicago Saturday night.
Against the spread
PASS.
The ML presents more profit for the Kings.
Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 229.5 (-110).
The Kings have hit the Under in 3 of their last 4 games and 5 of their last 8 on the road. The Bulls have hit the Under in 2 of their last 3 and 5 of their last 8. They have scored 117 or fewer in 6 of their last 8, while their defense has held opponents to 118 or fewer in 8 of their last 10. With the Kings playing on the 2nd night of a back-to-back and the Bulls dealing with injuries, there should be a slower pace for both teams.
