The Grizzlies, at the time of writing, were the slight favorites, set at -1.5 (bet365). Memphis has posted a lot of wins in recent weeks, however, a close examination of this team shows that they probably won’t be up for this game.

The Sacramento Kings are 26-19 overall on the season. Besides a 15-10 record at home (Memphis is 11-12 away), the Kings have played well overall for a number of weeks. They are 12-7 in their last 19 games and have taken the lead in the Pacific Division.
The Kings at underdog odds in their own building cannot be ignored against a team with a losing record on the road. Furthermore, Sacramento does enter the game with a little more rest. They did not play on Sunday while Memphis did play. Lastly, the Kings are on a mini-homestand, meaning that they haven’t been burdened with any travel of late. Our recommendation is to make a moneyline bet on Sacramento in this one at odds that a bit better than EVEN.
