Premium Pick

Sacramento has a winning road record. They come off a frustrating five-game homestand losing all five with three of the defeats by a total of 6 points. The Kings are 10th in the NBA in scoring, eighth in shooting, and third from the charity stripe (80.1%). They've won three of their last five on the road. Los Angeles has played 10 of its last 14 on the road. They've split the last two games, losing at home to Detroit (117-114) as a 6.5-point favorite, and an emotional win at Golden State (115-113) on Christmas Day as an underdog. Anthony Davis hurt his ankle and missed Friday's practice. LeBron James is also questionable because of an illness. They've failed to cover six of their last eight at home. Play Sacramento.
