The Kings have started to change their game a bit this season, and are no longer as reckless on the court as they were last season. The team has lost its status as the league's best offensive team, but has improved on defence, and is currently close to climbing out of the top 10 of the defensive rankings.
Sacramento is not without its failures. Last game, the Kings lost to the Clippers 99:119 in Los Angeles. But if you take a stretch of 15 previous games, the Kings have ten wins. And, in general, not a bad tournament situation - sixth place in the West with a balance of 13-9.
Oklahoma City Thunder
The Thunder have also improved their defence this season and are still in second place in the Western Conference, but it is likely that they will soon drop lower. Still, the team has a very young roster, and it's too early for them to pursue big tournament goals.
In the previous game, Oklahoma confidently beat Western Conference outsider Utah 134:120 at home. The most productive in Mark Dano's team was Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who scored 30 points. Chet Holmgren had 16 points and 8 rebounds.
Expert Betting Tips
Despite a series of losses against Sacramento, Oklahoma now seems to have a great chance to win. The Thunder have the best away balance in the Western Conference - 7-3, while the Kings are still not doing well with tactical updates. We're betting on Oklahoma, but we also don't believe that the match will be too efficient - after all, the progress of both teams in defence this season is obvious. At the same time, we expect the Kings to win on three-pointers.
