Kings vs. Timberwolves Prediction & Pick
Although Minnesota has won two of the previous three games in this season series, I like Sacramento evening things up tonight. The Kings have been great at Golden 1 Center and have won seven of their last 10 home games. Furthermore, they have a 71.7% winning percentage as the favorite this season.
The Timberwolves are playing great as well, but they haven't had a chance to rest since last night's win. On the second night of a back-to-back, it's going to be tough for Minnesota to keep up with a Sacramento squad that paces the Association with 124.0 points per game on 51.3% shooting (No. 2) in home games.
The Timberwolves will keep things close, but home-court advantage will be enough to help the Kings secure the victory.
Final Score Prediction: Kings: 128 | Timberwolves: 124
Kings vs. Timberwolves Best Bet
If you're looking for a game with a ton of offense, this is the perfect one for you. After all, the over is 8-3 in the Kings' last 11 home games while being 5-1 in the T-Wolves' last six on the road. The over has also been reached in each of the last five Kings-Timberwolves tilts in Sacramento, averaging out to 255.6 points.
After combing for 272 points in their last clash at Golden 1 Center earlier this month, look for these teams to put on another show.
Bet: Over 239 Points (-110)
