The New Orleans Pelicans will play host to the Sacramento Kings at the Smoothie King Center in the NBA on Monday night. The Pels (14-40) are 14th in the Western Conference, while the Kings (12-42) are bottom of the standings. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The New Orleans Pelicans will enter this matchup feeling a little better about themselves, having halted their three-game losing run with a 119-115 victory over the Timberwolves on Friday.
The Pels have shown some improvement lately and pulled off a nice comeback to beat Minnesota. However, having done no trades, it’s difficult to suggest they are going to end the season too far off the bottom.
Saddiq Bey and Zion Williamson combined for 59 points in the last game. The team is 8-19 at home this season, but they have won two of their last three at this venue.
Meanwhile, the Sacramento Kings are the coldest team in the entire NBA at the moment, now on a 12-game losing streak after going down 132-126 to the Cavaliers on Saturday.
They held an 11-point lead at one stage in that match but could not see it through. It is becoming clear that the Kings are already looking to next season’s draft, having only brought in De’Andre Hunter.
Sacramento is 3-23 on the road this season and will be without Malik Monk and Zach LaVine for this match, while Domantas Sabonis is a doubt.

Our New Orleans Pelicans vs Sacramento Kings Prediction
The Pelicans have been poor again this season, but they have picked up four wins in their last eight and have been profitable over the last three weeks, covering in seven of their last 10 games.
The Kings, on the other hand, are ice cold, and there’s no real sign of improvement anytime soon. It’s tough to get behind either of these sides with much confidence, but the Pels are playing slightly better at the moment, and we fancy them to get the W in this one. Our New Orleans Pelicans vs Sacramento Kings prediction is New Orleans Pelicans -3.5.
