Sacramento Kings vs Atlanta Hawks prediction

This line makes no sense. Other than the Atlanta Hawks being at home and them beating the Kings each of the last 4 meetings, there’s no reason to back Atlanta here. The Atlanta Hawks continue to free fall, they don’t play defense, and they’re downright awful with their 7-23 ATS record. The Sacramento Kings are having a rough week themselves, but they don’t have a single player on their injury report, and they’re clearly the better team here at full strength. Give me the Kings in this near pick em spot.
