Prediction for the Spurs vs. King
This season, the Sacramento Kings have been erratic, making it difficult to predict which club will show up for a given game. Nevertheless, the San Antonio Spurs are 25-30 ATS for the season, they’re not playing defence, and they keep losing. Seven of the Spurs’ last ten games have ended without a cover. Every night, the Spurs are a huge underdog and aren’t selling out. In light of it, I say “Kings or pass.”
