Sacramento at Boston

Sacramento Kings coach Dave Joerger preaches defense, with the team #14 in points allowed, an improvement over last season when the team was outscored by four points per game. They are a big dog at Boston, a team with a slew of new pieces that are still trying to adjust. They also have had to adjust on the fly after losing big free agent acquisition Gordon Hayward opening night. Boston is 12-27 ATS after three or more straight wins, plus 4-16 ATS after four or more consecutive wins. In addition, double-digit favorites that have won 4+ games and had a winning record last season are 6-27 that next game. Finally, when playing against favorites on a 3+ game win streak that had a winning record the previous season, facing a team off a losing campaign has cashed at a 30-6 ATS clip. Play Sacramento.
