Sacramento Kings vs. San Antonio Spurs: Preview, Where to Watch and Betting Odds

The Sacramento Kings (9-11) meet the San Antonio Spurs (10-9) for the second time this season after losing the first encounter by 20 points. The Kings will expect to reverse their poor run of home losses and begin to make a move up the standings. Sitting at the number ten spot in the Western Conference standings and enjoying a winning run, San Antonio was pegged back by the LA Lakers last Wednesday, who ended their five-game winning streak. On the flip side, the Kings have one win from their last six games but have been installed as the favorites to win the game against the Spurs by the oddsmakers.

The Kings, who lost by 20 points when the sides last met early in November, enter this game having slumped to another defeat last Friday when they lost 115-106 to the Portland Trail Blazers on the road in the NBA Cup. Earlier last week, the Kings won a 115-104 victory at the Minnesota Timberwolves, but the Trail Blazers diminished any chance of escaping the rut. Against them, the Kings committed 20 turnovers and scored only 44.9% from the field. D’Aaron Fox contributed 22 points, Domantis Sabonis chipped in 29, and Malik Monk led with 29 points. The Kings' poor scoꦯring stats have seen them make 109 or fewer points in five of their last six games.

No. 1 Pick from the 2023 NBA Draft, Victor Wembanyama scored 34 points and had 14 rebounds as the San Antonio Spurs ran out 116-196 winners over the Kings in November. The Spurs have been in good form lately, going on a run of consecutive victories which was ended by the LA Lakers last time out. The Lakers dominated the Spurs in the game Friday morning and won handsomely by 119-101. Wembanyama recorded 20 pಌoints and 10 rebounds in the game as the Lakers swamped the Sp𓆉urs.
