Suns vs Kings Prediction
Massive game for both sides as the Suns are hoping to stay out of the play-in tournament and the Kings are fighting for play-in tournament seeding. The difference here is the Suns have the rest advantage, while the Kings are on the end of a back to back and haven’t been the same since the Monk injury. The Kings have lost 4 of their last 5 games, and they’ve lost the last 2 games against the Suns. I’ll lay the reasonable line with the Suns on the road.
