The Sacramento Kings will welcome the spiralling Washington Wizards in their next NBA match. The Kings currently sit in ninth place in the Western Conference, whereas their visitors are rock bottom in the East. Read on for our prediction for this match.

The Kings got back to winning ways last time out with a 132-127 victory over the in-form Rockets. Doug Christie’s men have been in terrific form and have now won eight of the nine matches since making a coaching change a month ago.

This impressive run has lifted Sacramento into the play-in places with a 21-20 record. Jordan McLaughlin and Keon Ellis are both questionable for this match.

The Wizards are coming off a 122-114 defeat in Golden State that continued their losing streak. Brian Keefe’s men have lost nine straight games and managed just one win this year.

They possess the worst record in the league having lost 34 of their 40 fixtures. The Wizards have lost 16 of 17 road games and have a 1-15 record against Western Conference teams.

They also sit in the bottom six places for both offence and defence with their 122.8 points allowed the most in the league.

Malcolm Brogdon, Marvin Bagley and Saddiq Bey are still sidelined with injuries and will not be available.
