Our Phoenix Suns vs Sacramento Kings Prediction
The Suns seem to be settling into a good rhythm on offense, with their star players all fit and firing. They are worthy favourites here against a Kings side that have been criticized for playing too slowly against the more energized sides in the league. We will be playing the hosts to win this match as a standalone wager, but fancy the Under, considering both sides are coming into the match after tough matches last night. Our Phoenix Suns vs Sacramento Kings prediction: Under 243.5.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
