NBA Basketball Betting – Seattle at Sacramento
Our Sportsbooks: WHO: Seattle SuperSonics (12-36 SU, 22-25-1 ATS) at Sacramento Kings (22-24 SU, 25-20 ATS)
WHERE: ARCO Arena in Sacramento
WHEN: Wednesday, February 6 at 10 PM ET
BetUS NBA basketball betting odds: SACRAMENTO -9.5, Total 211
In the HEAD-to-HEAD NBA betting trends:
* SAC has won seven of the last eight meetings SU
* Eight of the last 12 meetings have gone OVER the total
* SEA has covered four of the last five meetings as the visiting team
* SAC has won nine of the last 12 meetings SU as the home team
* Eleven of the last 13 meetings in Sacramento have gone OVER the total
* SEA has had the rebounding edge in four of the last five meetings
* SAC has made more three-pointers in four of the last five meetings
Seattle has been able to accumulate the second-most rebounds in the NBA (44.9 per game). The Sonics are shooting 43.8% as a team, and have held opponents below 100 points only 19 times. Also:
* SEA has lost 15 of its last 18 games SU
* SEA has played four of its last six games UNDER the total
* SEA is 1-5-1 ATS in its last seven road games
* SEA has lost its last ten road games SU
* SEA has played eight of its last 11 road games UNDER the total
Sacramento is averaging 100.4 points a game for the season. The Kings have played 13 “overs” in 23 home games, and steal the ball eight times a game. Also:
* SAC has covered two of its last six games
* SAC has won four of its last five games SU
* SAC has won its last five home games SU
* SAC has covered four of its last five home games
* SAC has played eight of its last nine home games OVER the total
Sacramento is still a ways off from contending for the eighth and final playoff spot, but the Kings are giving it a good shot, with seven wins in their last nine games and sitting just two games below the .500 mark. Coach Reggie Theus, who led New Mexico State to tremendous success, deserves to be commended.
The Kings appear to be perfectly happy in running with the ball, as they’ve averaged over 107 ppg over their last five. Since the youthful Sonics are not a team known for stopping opponents (they let the BULLS shoot 46% and score 118 last night), we think Sacramento can operate relatively unimpeded.
We worry about laying this many with the Kings, because they haven’t been proficient at these numbers (just 3-5 ATS laying 9.5 or more). But they’re trending toward the higher-scoring games (eight of last nine home games over the total), and we don’t mind going that way either.
We’ll go “over” the 211 points, as it is posted in the Top Sportsbooks NBA basketball betting odds.
