Sacramento Kings vs Phoenix Suns Free Pick
As I see the Phoenix covering this spread, they are the more defensively sound team. This game will see the King’s struggle to consistently make shots and fall behind. The Suns will have open shots all through this game, and NBA betting trends expect them to take advantage. Although the Kings are excellent offensively, they will be unable to match this Suns’ defense.
Free Pick: Phoenix Suns -3.5 (-119)
