Sacramento Kings Vs. Los Angeles Lakers
The Game: Sacramento Kings vs. Los Angeles Lakers, 10:30 p.m. ET
| Team | Spread | Money | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sacramento Kings | +3 (-112) | +120 | O 239.5 (-112) |
| Los Angeles Lakers | -3 (-108) | -142 | U 239.5 (-110) |
Pick: Sacramento Kings ML
Having dropped three of their last four games, including a rough 113-109 home loss to the Chicago Bulls on Monday, the Sacramento Kings need to battle through the Los Angeles Lakers to avoid losing even more ground in the Western Conference playoff picture.
Working in their favor is that they're a perfect 2-0 this season against Los Angeles and 6-1 SU dating back to Jan. 12, 2022.
Even though the Lakers are 5-1 in their last six at Crypto.com Arena, as well, three of those wins came against the three-worst teams in the NBA.
Los Angeles Clippers Vs. Houston Rockets
The Game: Los Angeles Clippers vs. Houston Rockets, 7:30 p.m. ET
| Team | Spread | Money | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Los Angeles Clippers | -6.5 (-110) | -260 | O 223 (-110) |
| Houston Rockets | +6.5 (-110) | +215 | U 223 (-110) |
Pick: Los Angeles Clippers ATS -6.5
The stench of a 15-point blown lead against the Giannis Antetokounmpo-less Milwaukee Bucks still lingers for the Los Angeles Clippers, so a game against the 12th-seeded Houston Rockets comes at an opportune time.
Covering the spread won't come easy, though, as Los Angeles is just 3-8 ATS in its last 11 games while Houston is a respectable 4-2 in its last six while also having won two in a row SU by nine points or more.
The Rockets are just 3-8 SU on no rest, though, and the Clippers will be out for blood to erase that Bucks performance from memory.
Cleveland Cavaliers Vs. Atlanta Hawks
The Game: Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Atlanta Hawks, 7:30 p.m. ET
| Team | Spread | Money | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cleveland Cavaliers | +2 (-108) | +108 | O 214.5 (-110) |
| Atlanta Hawks | -2 (-112) | -126 | U 214.5 (-110) |
Pick: OVER 214.5 Total Points
Missing All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell has obviously hindered the Cleveland Cavaliers' offense to an extent, yet they still had enough of it to end the Boston Celtics' 11-game winning streak on Tuesday.
Cleveland ranks 26th overall with just 104.3 points over its last three outings sans Mitchell, which helps explain why the total has gone UNDER in five of its last seven games as well.
Still, against the Atlanta Hawks, a 214.5-point total is surpassable even on the second night of a back-to-back slate for both sides. Atlanta also just dropped 116 points at Madison Square Garden, so a similar effort should help get us OVER in this matchup.
