Smart Game Analysis
Boston Celtics has a 78% chance of winning the game
The Celtics are poised to dominate a struggling Kings squad that is missing its two most important offensive engines.
Key Analysis
- • Sacramento is severely handicapped by the absence of Domantas Sabonis (knee) and Zach LaVine (ankle).
- • Jaylen Brown is playing at an elite level, averaging 29.5 points per game to lead the Celtics offense.
- • The Kings possess a porous defensive rating of 122.3, which ranks near the bottom of the league.
- • Boston enters with strong momentum having won 5 of their last 6 games, while Sacramento has lost 12 of their last 15.
- • Sacramento has a poor 26.7% record against the spread at home this season.
- • DeMar DeRozan must take over the scoring load completely for the Kings to have any chance of an upset.
