The Sacramento Kings (3-7) host the Denver Nuggets (7-2) in an NBA 2025-26 game on Tuesday, November 11, at the Golden 1 Center. 

The Nuggets ride a four-game win streak into Sacramento after a strong homestand that culminated in a 117-100 victory over the Indiana Pacers. They built an early 13-point lead in the opening period and managed to hold off any comeback attempt from the Pacers.

Nikola Jokic led the charge for the Nuggets with a triple-double performance of 32 points, 14 rebounds, and 14 assists. Through nine games, Jokic is tallying triple-double averages of 25.2 points, 13.0 boards, and 11.9 assists. 

As for the Kings, they’ve dropped two straight games, most recently a 144-117 defeat to the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Kings' defense was atrocious in this loss, giving up back-to-back quarters of 40 points to the Timberwolves.

Three Sacramento players scored more than 20, with Zach LaVine topscoring with 26. 

However, defense remains a big problem for the Kings this season. Through ten games, they rank 27th in defensive rating (120.7) and their offense hasn't been good, either (23rd in offensive rating). 

It's still early to say for sure but signs point to another mediocre season for the Kings.

Our Denver Nuggets vs Sacramento Kings Prediction

After back-to-back blowout losses that exposed their defense, Sacramento faces Denver, one of the league’s most polished half-court teams. The Kings are already 27th in the league in defensive rating, which would be exploited by Nuggets star Nikola Jokic's offensive brilliance.

Key players Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon are both listed day-to-day on the Nuggets' injury report, but they're expected to play on Tuesday. Our prediction for the Sacramento Kings vs Denver Nuggets match is: Nuggets (-8.5) cover the spread.
