Sacramento failed to gain consistency. Sometimes Kings getting victories, but they are unable to launch a winning streak. Not too long ago Kings managed to beat San Antonio (121:114) at home, but then suffered defeats to Golden State (98:113) and Clippers (89:105).
Californian team had some problems with the squad. Sacramento played without a number of players. Many of them were tested positive for COVID-19. But now only Alex Len, De'Aaron Fox and Neemias Queta are on injuried list. But Queta is hardly a big loss for the Kings, Portuguese player got only eight minutes on the floor in the current season.

Tip and bets
Ten days ago Memphis recorded an away victory over Sacramento (124:105). Grizzlies played that match without Morant, while Kings had to perform without Len and Fox.
We are not expecting a different result in this match, because Kings' key players are still absent, while Ja Morant returned to Grizzlies' line-up. We think that visitors will get another victory.
Our prediction - Memphis to win with a handicap of (-3,5) points
In the most recent match against Golden State Morant collected only three rebounds. But Warriors are one of the best defensive teams in the league, so it is a pretty successful result for him.
Ja will have more opportunities to prove himself in the match against Sacramento. Gentry's men are not looking well on defense, Morant will have more space, so he should be able to collect five rebounds.
Our second bet - Ja Morant: total over 4,5 rebounds
