The Sacramento Kings just aren’t a team I’m looking to get behind as their season has fallen apart, and that includes losing their last five games by an average of 8.2 points and losing on the road by an average of 7.6 points. The Indiana Pacers have their issues as well, but at least they’re home here and have actually run into a win here and there lately. The Kings are just downright terrible. It’s Pacers or pass for me.
