Latest NBA Predictions
Philadelphia 76ers
So far this season, the Philadelphia 76ers have looked like a pretty good basketball team in the Eastern Conference. The Philadelphia 76ers have continued to stay in the playoff picture in the Eastern Conference. The Sixers are on a 2-game losing skid playing without their star players, Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons out with their respective injuries. The Philadelphia 76ers weren’t a good road team with Embiid and Simmons, and now they have to continue playing without them. The Philadelphia 76ers need a win after losing four of their last six games, but the Philadelphia is the NBA’s best home game team, but on the road it’s a much weaker level.
Sacramento Kings
The Sacramento Kings have continued to try to scrap their way back into the playoff picture. The Kings in a very short period of time managed to reach a new level and rise to ninth place, which means that the struggle for the playoff zone is just beginning. Luke Walton’s wards began to act more aggressively in the attack and while everything works. The main problem of Sacramento is the complete instability both in the game and in the results. The Kings can be safely dubbed the most unstable team of the League. So far this season, the Sacramento Kings have looked like a mediocre basketball team in the Western Conference. The Kings have lost 34 of their first 61 games and they are in possession of third place in the Pacific Division.
76ers vs Kings Predictions
To be honest, The Philadelphia Sixers has very serious losses, plus the team has a terrible effect on the road, so we won’t invent anything and offer a bet on the victory of Sacramento, because the club of Luke Walton really scored a good move.
Full-Game Side Bet
The Kings are on the rise and motivated by the struggle for a place in the playoffs. Seventy Sixers is a higher-class team, but he plays uncertainty on the road. This should be a game that highly favors the Kings, given they are facing an undermanned 76ers that are without their two best players.
