76ers vs Kings Prediction

I don’t want to back the Kings as much as the next guy, but I’m not thrilled to lay double-digit chalk with the 76ers. Even though the 76ers are 25-19-2 ATS on the season, they’ve sprinkled in questionable losses lately and have 13 home losses. The 76ers are 3-5 ATS in their last 8 games as a double-digit favorite, and 3 of those failed covers were outright losses. The Kings are awful on the road, but this still feels like too many points. I’ll lean toward the Kings if forced to pick.
