Sacramento Kings vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
The Sacramento Kings will look to make it three straight wins when they host the struggling Charlotte Hornets at the Golden 1 Center. Sacramento have been one of the surprise teams of the season after winning 16 of their first 28 games of the season. Their last game was a 122-113 win over the Pistons and they’ve now won six of their last 10 games. Standing in the Kings’ way is a Charlotte Hornets team that holds the worst record in the NBA currently. The Hornets have managed just seven of their 30 games, placing their winning percentage at just .233. The Hornets have now lost eight straight games following their 119-115 loss to the Nuggets away from home on Sunday and they will now have to deal with a back-to-back here. Charlotte have won only three of their away games while losing 12 and are 1-9 in their last 10 games.
For the Kings, they will bring into this game a significant rest advantage with their win over the Pistons coming on Friday, meaning they have had the whole weekend to prepare while Charlotte have to play their second game in as many days. This is a difficult spot for the Hornets as they are currently facing the second a grueling six game Western Conference road trip. Meanwhile, the Kings should be extremely confident of making it three wins on the bounce as their offense has been clicking in recent outings with De'Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis leading the way. Sacramento have scored over 120 points in their last two consecutive games, with Sabonis putting up a 20 / 20 game while Fox has chipped in with 25.5 points, 9.5 assists and 5.5 rebounds during those two wins.

Our Sacramento Kings vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction
The line for this game opened as the Kings at -8 point favorites. That line has now hit the double digit mark with Sacramento currently giving -10 points to their opponents. This is a tough spot for Charlotte but they are a young team and have managed to stay competitive in games where they come in with a rest disadvantage. The Kings have been great this season but this line looks to be a bit inflated given the recent run of form from both teams. Therefore our pick for the Sacramento Kings vs Charlotte Hornets is for the road underdogs to cover the spread and we will back the Hornets on the +10 point spread.
