Sacramento Kings vs Cleveland Cavaliers preview

The Kings are in the final play-in spot in the West with five games left on the schedule. They are 2.0 games ahead of the Phoenix Suns, who continue to struggle without Kevin Durant. There isn’t much scope of movement for Sacramento either as the most it can improve is by going to the ninth spot.

Sacramento has won just three of the past 10 games but is coming off of a 125-102 win against the Charlotte Hornets on Friday. Zach LaVine (25 points and 10 rebounds) and Domantas Sabonis (24 points and 11 rebounds) had double-doubles, while DeMar DeRozan had 22 points.

The Cavaliers have been one of the most dominating teams this season. After starting the preseason winless, they started the season with 15 straight wins. They continued that dominance throughout the season and are seen as the primary challengers to the Boston Celtics’ quest to return to the NBA finals.

Cleveland is on a three-game win streak and is coming off of a close 114-113 win against the San Antonio Spurs on Friday. Donovan Mitchell led the team with 26 points, while Defensive Player of the Year contender Evan Mobley had 25 points and 12 rebounds.

Domantas Sabonis’ points total is set at 18.5. He has crossed that mark in three of his past five games. However, he might struggle against Cleveland’s Mobley and Jarrett Allen. Bet on the under.

Evan Mobley’s points total is set at 17.5. The oddsmakers favor him to go over and so do we.

The oddsmakers favor the Cavs to get an easy win at home. We expect the same, as Cleveland should cover the spread for a win to tie the season series. This should be a high-scoring game with the team total going past 236.5 points.
