The Knicks play on the back-to-back on Monday night, but being up by as much as 32 at one point in Sunday’s 116-93 at the Clippers didn’t spend as much energy. That being said, this is New York’s fourth straight road game.
The Kings are due for a victory after alternating wins and losses over their last five games and coming off a 114-113 defeat against Dallas on Saturday. Sacramento is 4-6 over their last 10 despite Domantas Sabonis having a double-double in 9 of those.
New York Knicks
The Knicks look like they’ll miss out on the play-in tournament as they are currently 5.5 games back of Atlanta for the #10 seed in the East. That’s what a recent 7-game losing streak will do to you.
New York did look good in the win over the Clippers on Sunday though, and Sacramento is definitely beatable even though the Knicks are +3.5 underdogs.
Tom Thibodeau’s squad also played well last Thursday, falling 115-114 at Phoenix but the Suns were also without Chris Paul and Devin Booker. Julius Randle and RJ Barrett both had 20+ points vs. the Suns.
Randle is the only player that logged more than 30 minutes vs. the Clippers, so New York should be fairly preserved for the back to back. Then again the Knicks lost by 17 in Denver in their last game on 0 days rest.
Sacramento Kings
Sabonis has been very productive since coming over to the Kings, but it really hasn’t led to consistent wins. Sacramento has gone 4-6 since the trade with Indiana, and it looks like they gave away a very good guard with Tyrese Haliburton having a lot of success with the Pacers.
Sabonis has posted 7 straight double-doubles, but the Kings are just 2-5 over that span. Sacramento couldn’t even pick up a win on Saturday in Dallas despite 15/10 from Sabonis and another 44 from De’Aaron Fox.
The Kings are back home after playing five straight and 8 of their last 9 on the road. There’s not really a home court advantage though with Sacramento having a 15-18 record at the Golden 1 Center this year.
NBA Betting Trends:
- Knicks are 12-4 ATS last 16 on 0 days rest
- Knicks are 3-7 ATS last 10 home games
- Knicks are 3-10 ATS last 13 overall
- OVER is 6-1 in Knicks last 7 overall
- Kings are 4-1 ATS last 5 overall
- OVER is 4-0 in Kings last 4 overall
Free New York Knicks vs. Sacramento Kings NBA Prediction:
Sabonis is going to get his on Monday night, but likely so is Randle. Fox is coming off a huge game against the Mavericks but at the same time Barrett has gone for 30+ in two of his last five.
Oddsmakers are expecting some points in this one with a betting total of 231.5. The Knicks held the Clippers to 93 points on Sunday though, but how will the back to back affect their defense?
Ultimately it wouldn’t be a complete shock if New York won this game outright, therefore you have to take the points.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Knicks +3.5
New York won by 20 in their only meeting this season back at Madison Square Garden, and have won three of the last four overall in the head to head series.
