AMEDEUS' NBA SLAM DUNK!
(NBA) Sacramento vs. New Orleans,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -110.00 New Orleans (Home)
Result: Win
The Kings are coming into this game with an 8-4 record this season and they have been one of the hotter teams in the NBA as well, winning their last 6 straight games. The Kings have also won their last 3 straight games on the road but now they are playing their 4th straight road game in the middle of a road trip. Not only are they playing their 4th straight road game, but they are also playing on a B2B here with this being the 3rd game they have played in the last 4 nights and fatigue is going to settle in late in this game for them. They are going up against a Pelicans team that is 6-7 this season and is coming off of very close loss at home by 1 point against the red hot Timberwolves. The Pelicans have been dealing with injuries recently but they have still been playing very well as they have won 2 of their last 3 games with wins against the Nuggets and the Mavericks as well. They have also been much better at home recently as they have won 2 of their last 3 games there. Even with their injuries, the Pelicans have been playing very well at home to beat some very good teams and they have the rest advantage here since they played on Saturday and have not had to travel in the middle of a homestand. This is a bad spot for the Kings and their streak will come to an end here. The Pelicans will cover the spread in this game.
