Denver will have to figure out a way to stop DeMarcus Cousins, who scored 37 points and grabbed 20 rebounds in Sacramento's 116-100 win over the Nuggets on Friday. Rudy Gay and Rajon Rondo added 24 points apiece as the Kings shot 49.4 percent from the field. The Kings have won two in a row after a four-game losing streak while the Nuggets have lost three of their last four games, including a blowout 121-101 loss at home against Boston on Sunday. The Nuggets had six players in double figures led by Nikola Jokic with 20 points, but the defense allowed the Celtics a .485 field goal percentage. Sacramento is 5-2 ATS after a win and the road team has covered 10 of the last 14 meetings. Denver is 1-3 ATS its last four games overall. Take the Kings.
