Pelicans vs Kings Prediction, Picks & Player Props (3/6)

The New Orleans Pelicans travel to the West Coast to take on the red hot Sacramento Kings in a West Conference Showdown.

The Kings are 7-3 in their last 10 games but just lost their last game at home to the pesky Timberwolves, 138-134.

Can they flush that disappointing loss at home tonight against Brandon Ingram and the desperate Pelicans?

Prediction

The Kings are sitting in 3rd right now in the crowded middle of the Western conference and, after dropping the last game to the Timberwolves, need to get back on track.

The Phoenix Suns are 2.5 game behind the Kings in 4th and, with how they look with Kevin Durant and Devin Booker together, the Kings need to make sure they keep winning games.

Superstar De’Aaron Fox is questionable tonight with his wrist injury so that is worth monitoring as we get closer to game time but I love the Pelicans and the points in this matchup either way.

The Pelicans routed the Kings earlier in February, 136-104 in New Orleans. There was no De’Aaron fox in that game but there was also no Brandon Ingram either.

The Pelicans need to win this game to continue to hang around in the playoff race and I expect this game to come down to the wire.

Give me the Pelicans and the points to keep it close and maybe even sneak out a win in Sacramento.

Player Prop of the Game

Trey Murphy o2.5 3 pointers (-105) Fan Duel

Let’s cap this off with Murphy and his shooting from distance.

Murphy has hit 3+ in 2 straight games while taking 9+ 3’s in both games. Love that volume.

He has shot really well against the Kings as well, hitting 4 and 6 3’s in his last 2 games against Sacramento.

For the nice price of -102 for a shooter who is hot, I will take that number all day long!
