Our Sacramento Kings vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction
Sacramento has lost 10 of 11 games, including six at home. The Kings are giving up too many points, which makes it hard to win even when LaVine gets going. Sabonis can help on the glass, but Sacramento needs to get stops and take better care of the ball. There hasn't been much evidence of either lately.
Portland is red-hot and full of confidence after taking two straight from the Oklahoma City Thunder, with both played at home. Avdija and Lillard are tough to stop, and both are strong playmakers for the Blazers. Sacramento, playing at home, will keep the game tight for a while, but the Trail Blazers have already beaten Sacramento (128-120) once and will pull away in the fourth quarter.
Our pick for Sacramento Kings vs Portland Trail Blazers is: Trail Blazers -11.
