Sacramento is on a losing streak of seven straight games and it is just 3-13 in its last 16 games but the recent stretch has been a tough one as six of the last eight games have been on the road. Prior to that, the Kings went 4-4 at home where they are 17-20 on the season. That record is far from stellar and they have been pretty unsuccessful for the most part as home underdogs but the situation here is definitely in their favor based on the opponent and the spot it is in. San Antonio enters this game on a bit of a roll, winning three straight games including back-to-back victories over two of the top teams in the league, the Magic and the Lakers. With a game at Phoenix on tap for tomorrow night, this is a difficult sandwich situation for the Spurs. San Antonio is a game over .500 on the road but like a lot of teams in the league, it plays up and down to the competition, going 11-8 ATS against teams with a winning record and 7-9 ATS against teams with a losing record. The Spurs are 17-20 ATS overall on the road including an 8-11 ATS mark as a road chalk. San Antonio has clearly dominated this series with an 8-0 record over the last eight meetings but it is just 4-3-1 ATS in those games which shows a lot of overvalue. The winning streak includes four wins in Sacramento however the Kings are 3-1 ATS in those games with the lone loss against the number coming in November 2008 when they were actually favored. The Spurs wins at Arco Arena have been by 3, 2, 3 and 2 points so needless to say, the games have been extremely tight. Going back further the Kings are 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings at home. Injuries have been a problem for San Antonio this season. The Spurs are still without point guard Tony Parker and his replacement, George Hill, gave the Kings plenty of problems in his last Arco visit but Hill is out as well with an ankle injury for at least two games. San Antonio is just 3-9 ATS in its last 12 games as a road favorite as well as 1-4 ATS in its last five road games against teams with a losing home record. The Kings meanwhile are 5-2-1 ATS in their last eight games as an underdog of 5.0 to 10.5 points and they are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games against teams with a winning percentage greater than .600. 3* Sacramento Kings
