Kevin Durant’s player prop point total has been slowly climbing, but we think there’s some value left at the current number. The 35-year-old small forward loves playing the Kings, averaging 30.4 points while shooting 54.1% from the floor and 45.6% from deep in his last 10 meetings with them.
Phoenix Suns vs Sacramento Kings Prediction
The Suns and Kings have split their four meetings so far this season, with each team winning once at home and once on the road. Sacramento took the first two matchups, while Phoenix won the last two.
Given the Kings’ recent struggles, especially defensively, and the fact they are on a back-to-back, the Suns seem to have the advantage here. They are the more desperate team and have been playing better lately. Sacramento is just 1-4 ATS in its last five and 3-7 ATS in its last 10 vs Phoenix.
Look for Booker, Durant and Beal to take advantage of a tired Kings defense. Fox and Sabonis will still get theirs, but it likely won’t be enough unless someone else steps up. The Suns have too much firepower and motivation in this spot.
PHX vs SAC Pick:
Suns -5.5 (-110)
