Portland Trail Blazers Betting Preview
The Portland Trail Blazers have been in great form as they’ve won eight of their first 11 games and they are now aiming for a third straight victory after taking down the Thunder in a 118-108 win on Wednesday. Deni Avdija led the team with 28 points, six assists, four steals and two blocks, Sidy Cissoko and Jrue Holiday each scored 19 points while Damian Lillard chipped in with 18 points. As a team, the Trail Blazers shot 46 percent from the field and 19 of 49 from the 3-point line as they looked to be in trouble after seeing their 12-point lead turn into a four-point deficit in the fourth quarter, but they played excellent defense to hold the Thunder to just 10 points in the final 5:57 to escape with their second straight win over the Thunder.
Sacramento Kings Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Sacramento Kings have been absolutely ice-cold as they’ve lost 10 of their first 11 games and they are now on a four-game slide after falling short to the Magic in a 107-100 home defeat on Tuesday. Zach LaVine led the team with 31 points on 10 of 16 shooting, Darius Acuff Jr added 29 points with six assists while De’Andre Hunter chipped in with 15 points. As a team, the Kings shot 44 percent from the field and 16 of 34 from the 3-point line as they went on a ferocious 20-3 run to overcome an early 14-point deficit, but the Magic responded with an 18-5 run to reclaim the lead for the rest of the game. Domantas Sabonis has clearly checked out already as he finished scoreless in 24 minutes of action.
Portland v Sacramento Free Prediction
The Trail Blazers have ruled out Shaedon Sharpe, Chris Youngblood and Ja Morant again, while the Kings have ruled out Maxime Raynaud with Precious Achiuwa listed as questionable.
These two squads last met on Oct 23 and it was the Trail Blazers who won by 128-120 thanks to big games from Avdija and Lillard. The Trail Blazers have kept winning games since then and will be brimming with confidence after beating the Thunder twice in a row, so they must love their chances against the ice-cold Kings who just can’t buy a win these days despite getting strong production from Acuff Jr. The first meeting between these teams was relatively close, but I am expecting a much more one-sided affair in this one with the Trail Blazers securing the win and cover on the road.
