NBA Best Bets Today – Tuesday, November 10
Kings +7.5 (-127 – 1.5 units) & Kings ML (+195 – 0.5 units) vs. Magic
Magic at Kings – 10:00 pm ET
The Kings are +6.5 in tonight’s meeting with the Magic, but I bought up to +7.5 at a reasonable price. I’d suggest doing the same if you can find the -127 odds I did. If not, play Sacramento at +6.5 for a little less than my 1.5-unit recommendation.
Keegan Murray and Domantas Sabonis are both listed as questionable for this evening, so there is some risk that comes with backing Sacramento. However, Orlando remains without Paolo Banchero and Jalen Suggs, meaning an already thin rotation is down two big-time contributors. To me, that means the Kings will have more talent when these teams hit the floor at the Golden 1 Center.
Sacramento has significantly more backcourt firepower than Orlando, and the Kings will also own the advantage inside if Sabonis can go. The only real place the Magic should feel good is small forward, where Franz Wagner is significantly better than anyone the Kings have to offer. Then again, Wagner’s shaky shooting makes him as easy to prepare for as any other top-50 player in the league.
This is a matchup I’ve had circled for Sacramento for a while now. The Kings might be headed toward a historically bad regular season, but even bad teams find ways to win games. This is the type of game Sacramento can win, and you know the players will get up for it.
It’s worth noting that the Magic are 0-3 straight-up and against the spread as favorites this year. Also, under Doug Christie, the Kings have been solid in their “toilet bowl” games: they’re 7-5 straight-up against other teams with winning percentages of .250 or worse, and 5-3 straight-up against teams scoring fewer than 108.0 points per game. They should be able to give this poor offensive opponent a game.
