Free NBA Pick: Houston Rockets +2 (Jimmy Boyd)
I’ll take the better team, playing better basketball in this revenge spot. The Rockets lost to the Kings last month, but I expect them to have their revenge tonight against a team that has dropped 9 of 10. Sacramento is a poor 6-18 ATS in home games when playing against a team with a winning record this season, losing in these spots by an average score of 99.8 to 106.2. The Kings are 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 games as a favorite of 4.5 or fewer points and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 home games. Houston is 18-6 ATS revenging a loss where it scored less than 85 points over the last 3 seasons. It is also 20-9 ATS after a loss by 10 points or more over the last 2 seasons. Lastly, the underdog is 9-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings in this series. Take Houston.
