Toronto Raptors at Sacramento Kings Prediction
Sacramento has been a tough riddle to solve as the Kings have the talent but fail to produce the wins to complement the personnel. On the contrary, the Raptors have made the most of the dynamic duo of DeMar DeRozan and Kyle Lowry and this contest should be an opportunity to get rid of a pest that has haunted Toronto for far too long. Takers are enamored by Sacramento’s recent successes against the Raps and thus the Kings are the trendier pick. The Kings have a true beast in DeMarcus Cousins on the court and while he has heralded as one of the game’s best centers, the Raptors have a perimeter attack that neutralize his presence on the court. We won’t buy in to what has happened recently as the Raptors are clearly a different team that gets better which each game they play. It is dangerous to buy in to a team that goes on streaks like the Kings because you never really know when the ride is going to end. In this instance we will side with the public here as this market opened with Sacramento as high as 5.5 point pooch until steam poured in, giving us a chance to steal a pedigree favorite at an affordable price.
