Brooklyn Nets vs Sacramento Kings Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 11/24/24

Playing on the road has been really tough on the Brooklyn Nets who are just 2-7 SU in 9 games played so far. Poor defense has played a major part in that sub-par run, opponents are shooting over 48% from the field against Brooklyn this year which ranks just 26th among the 30 teams. A relatively short starting line-up has allowed opposing big men to have their way on the inside, this could be problematic on Sunday against the Kings who have one of the elite rebounders in Domantas Sabonis. Brooklyn is just 1-5 ATS in 6 games vs Sacramento.

This is a solid bounce back spot for the Kings who have just 1 win in 4 games. The 88 points scored against the Clippers in their last game was a season low, the team went ice cold from the field and three-point land. Both of those numbers should pick up against one of the worst defenses in the NBA, Sacramento is putting up an average of 113.5 points in the last 10 meetings vs the Nets. De’Aaron Fox will be hard to keep up with in the open floor, he’s averaging 39 points per game in his last 5 outings.

Brooklyn’s record in games where they’re the underdogs is just 3-9 SU this season. They’ll have a tough time scoring the ball against a Kings team that ranks 8th in opponent field goal percentage. Back the Kings to cover at home.

Kings -8.5 is available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
