Sacramento Kings vs Milwaukee Bucks Betting Analysis
The Milwaukee Bucks continue their west coast road trip in Sacramento for an interconference showdown with the Kings on Monday night.
The Kings won their third straight game 128-119 on the road against the Phoenix Suns on Saturday. The Bucks watched a three game winning streak fall by the wayside in a 125-116 loss on the road against the Golden State Warriors.
This will be the second and final game in a regular season series that Milwaukee leads 1-0 after beating Sacramento 126-113 at home on December 7th. Tip-off is scheduled for 10:00 PM EST/7:00 PST from the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento.
King Me
The Sacramento Kings improved to 40-26 on the season after beating Phoenix on Saturday. Three-point shooting proved to be the difference as the Kings outshot the Suns 15-35 43% to 13-44 for only 29.5%.
Harrison Barnes led his team in scoring with 19 points on an efficient 6-10 from the field. Four players scored double digits off the bench including Malik Monk, Davion Mitchell, Trey Lyles and Kessler Edwards.
Sacramento sits at #2 in the Western Conference, tied with the Memphis Grizzlies and five games behind the first place Nuggets. The Kings are the leagues best scoring team with a whopping 121.2 points a game on the leagues 2nd best shooting percentage of 50%.
Defense has been a struggle as they sit at 25th in defensive rating and 27th in defensive scoring with 118.3 points allowed per game. Sacramento sports a clean injury report, a breath of fresh air nowadays.
Bucks Look To Get Back On Track
The Milwaukee Bucks fell 48-19 on the season after losing an overtime game to the Warriors on Saturday. The Dubs dominated the Bucks on the glass with a 65-48 rebounding advantage.
Brook Lopez led his team in scoring with 19 points along with 7 rebounds. Bobby Portis recorded a 15 point, 13 rebound double-double while Giannis Antetokounmpo missed the game with a hand injury.
The Bucks have the NBAs best record at 48-19 as the only team with a winning percentage above 70% at .716. They rank 9th in scoring with 115.9 points a game on 46.6% from the field.
Defense has been their calling card as they sit at 2nd in defensive rating and 6th in defensive scoring with 111.9 points allowed per game. Antetokounmpo is listed as questionable for this contest with the hand issue while Wesley Matthews is probable with a calf injury.
Sacramento Kings vs Milwaukee Bucks Expert Prediction
The Milwaukee Bucks are currently favored by 2 points with a total set at 244.5. This should be an outstanding matchup between two of the NBAs top five teams.
The Kings have become the leagues most efficient offense as they rank first in both points and offensive rating. Giannis Antetokounmpo is questionable with a hand injury which could hamper the Milwaukee offense.
However, the Kings play defense and Milwaukee managed to score 116 points against Golden State in their last game. These teams combined for 239 points in first matchup and I’m expecting even more points tonight. Give me the over!!
Prediction: Over 244.5 -115 Draftkings
