Sacramento Kings vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction: Will the Kings extend their winning streak?

Sacramento has beaten San Antonio in five previous head-to-head games. Will the Kings extend their winning streak in the upcoming game?

The Kings made the playoffs for the first time since the 2005-06 season. The significant event happened in Portland, where Sacramento beat local Trail Blazers twice - 120:80 and 138:114. Now this team will not fall out of the top six. Neither will they drop below third place in the Western Conference, although they might climb higher. However, no matter who Sacramento gets in the first round of the postseason, the team has already achieved a great result.

Sacramento has everything ahead of them, while San Antonio appears behind them. Looking at this year's league, it's doubtful Gregg Popovich will be able to rebuild the Spurs. The team hasn't given up hope, though, losing everywhere in a row and nearly finishing in last place in the Western Conference. San Antonio has as many wins as Houston but a game to spare. Is it worth saying that the Spurs' priority for the end of the regular season is to lose all their remaining games to get a better pick in the upcoming draft and continue rebuilding?

The Spurs haven't just been losing everything. Lately, they've been losing a lot. San Antonio is in the hunt for draft picks at the end of the league and has a different lineup for nearly every game. In their meeting with Sacramento, the Spurs will likely have the most experimental lineup possible, so the Kings are unlikely to experience problems achieving a blowout win. Moreover, Sacramento State is on a roll after the team managed to clinch a playoff berth officially.
