Sacramento Kings head coach Dave Joerger took a little time to figure out his new team, but it appears he has his preferred lineup right now. The Kings will look to unveil the new lineup against the Toronto Raptors on Sunday.
- The Raptors are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games.
- The OVER is 6-0 in the Raptors' last 6 games.
- The Raptors are 3-8 ATS in the last 11 meetings.
Sportsbooks initially set the Raps as 5.5-point home underdogs with a total of 208.5.
Joerger put a small lineup on the floor against the Clippers on Friday, and it seemed to work. DeMarcus Cousins was featured at center, while Rudy Gay played the four, Aaron Afflalo was on the wing, and point guards Darren Collison and Ty Lawson were also in the mix. Small-ball has taken over the NBA, and the Kings are the latest team to embrace the revolution.
Toronto’s solid defense has disappeared lately. The Dinos held four of their first six opponents to under 100 points but have since surrendered an average of 113.2 in the last six contests.
