The Sacramento Kings (40-29) travel to the Orlando Magic (42-28). The Kings are winners of three of the last five games. Meanwhile, the Magic are on a five-game winning streak. But this is expected to be a close game, as their last contest in January headed into double overtime. But do you see Orlando getting a comfortable win at home against Sacramento tonight?

Key Stats
Sacramento Kings
Sacramento is led by Domantas Sabonis. Sabonis averages 20.0 points per game, 13.7 rebounds per game, and 8.3 assists per game. Therefore, he’s likely to flirt with a triple-double on any given night. Furthermore, De’Aaron Fox averages 26.6 points per game. But they will look for help from Malik Monk. Monk averages 16.0 points per game, and he’s coming off a strong 20-point performance against the Washington Wizards. All three of these players need to have good games if the Sacramento Kings are going to beat the Orlando Magic today.
Orlando Magic
Orlando wants to keep its position in the Eastern Conference. They are led by Paolo Banchero, who has 22.6 points per game this season. Furthermore, Wendell Carter Jr. looks to be a threat. Carter Jr. averages 11.5 points per game, along with 6.9 rebounds per game. He needs to step up his scoring and all-around production for this Orlando Magic team against the Sacramento Kings.

Game Prediction
I see this game as another tight one. While double overtime isn’t necessarily on the table, this should be a game that comes down to the wire. These are two teams in the Orlando Magic and Sacramento that can have off nights but are overall quality ball clubs. Furthermore, the Magic and Kings are having a stronger finish to their season and can hang with most teams on any given night. Therefore, I am picking the Sacramento Kings to cover the spread tonight.
Final Pick
Sacramento Kings +2.5
