Sacramento at Washington

You have to go back to last April to find the last time the Kings were a road favorite. But they are here against the Wizards. The oddsmaker isn't stupid. It makes sense. The teams met on Jan. 16 and Sacramento won, 128-115, at home despite making only 63% of its 30 free throws. The Kings haven't won since, losing eight in a row. But Domantas Sabonis, their best player, should be available after being rested against the Celtics this past Friday in Sacramento's last game. The Kings also might get back Russell Westbrook. He has missed the past two games with a foot injury. Washington upset the Bucks and Trail Blazers during the first two games of its current home stand, but tumbled back to Earth in its last game. That was a 142-111 loss to the Lakers two days ago. The Wizards are 2-10 in their last dozen games. This is a cheap price to fade them. Take the Kings.
