Trends
Bet 1st quarter. Sacramento win
In the last three head-to-head meetings, the "kings" won the opening segment
1.82Bet 1st quarter: total under 54.5 points
In the last three head-to-head meetings, no more than 54 points were scored in the opening quarter.
1.78Tip and bets
Phoenix played their previous face-to-face meeting without Kevin Durant and lost to Sacramento without a chance. This time, Jusuf Nurkic also went to the infirmary. The Suns will be even weaker, so they will hardly be able to count on success. We believe that the Kings will defeat them again.
Our prediction is Sacramento with a handicap of (-6.5) points at 1.79
Bet on total
Don't expect the game to be a high-scoring affair. The absence of Durant and Nurkic will definitely affect Phoenix performance. Accordingly, we doubt that the teams will score more than 226 points.
Forecast - total under 226.5 points for 1.80
Bet on statistics
DeRozan has already become a real leader of the "kings". In recent matches he often scores more than 25 points. We believe that the next match will be no exception.
Prediction - DeMar DeRozan: Total over 25.5 points for 1.78
