Sacramento is failing another season. The change of coach did not bring the desired effect. Moreover, under the leadership of Luke Walton, the “kings” even acted better. At the very least they were fighting for a top 10 finish in the Western Conference. The Kings are currently in 13th place. Three victories separate them from tenth place. The last time Sacramento won was three weeks ago when they beat Houston at home (124:115). After that, the kings lost in seven matches in a row. In the last match Gentry’s wards failed to cope with the Knicks (96:116).
The Nuggets are doing their best to stay in the playoff zone. We can say that the team works to the last, but from time to time Nikola Jokic cannot physically stand it and the philosophy of Michael Melone does not work right away, because the game is built around the forward. In the last meeting Denver visited the Target Center arena, where the series of five victories ended. The team failed to cope with the Minnesota attack (115-130), as Karl-Anthony Towns and Thorin Prince showed a fantastic result and scored 47 points for two. The Nuggets are in for another tough outing this time in Salt Lake City. Want more up-to-date NBA odds prediction and stay informed?
