Sacramento Kings (13-17) versus Detroit Pistons (13-17) is a non-conference action on Thursday night at the Golden 1 Center. The Kings are struggling to keep up in the Western Conference after a string of poor results have left them 10th in the standings, 11 games behind OKC Thunder at the top. The matchup against the Pistons will mark their fifth straight assignment at home, losing the last four. Detroit will look to take advantage of this position and grab their third consecutive win in as many away matches. They are coming off an impressive 117-114 win over the Lakers on Monday night, with Cade Cunningham scoring 20 points and assisting 10. Malik Beasley chipped in with 21 points and 5 assists. They'll be fired up to take on the struggling Kings.

Our Sacramento Kings vs Detroit Pistons Prediction

This is somewhat of a must-win matchup for the Kings, who have failed to maximize their 'friendly' home schedule this month. It's the first time the Kings and the Pistons are meeting this season, with Detroit winning 133-120 in their last matchup. The Kings will be worried that the Pistons have won on three of their previous four visits to the Golden 1 Center. However, the Kings are 3-1 in the last four meetings with Detroit. Interestingly, the point total has gone over in five of the previous six meetings between Sacramento and Detroit. Both sides have no significant injury worries, with the Kings set to be without Davin Carter's services until early next month. Our prediction for Sacramento Kings vs Detroit Pistons: Sacramento Kings to end their home skid with a win.
