The Denver Nuggets go to Sacramento to meet the Kings. This will be the first game for the Nuggets without head coach Mike Malone who was fired along with the GM, Calvin Booth.
Denver Nuggets News
The biggest news is that Malone isn’t the head coach anymore. Denver posted four losses in a row, and it seems that all the tensions and disputes emerged to the surface, with the management making a radical move.
Nikola Jokic’s magic isn’t fading but the Nuggets are. Right now, the Serb has one of the best statistical seasons of all time, averaging a triple-double per game and breaking all sorts of records. Yet his teammates are heavily underachieving.
Sacramento Kings News
It is completely different with the Sacramento Kings, who sharply improved their form during the tour through the East. After opening losses, Doug Christie’s boys won three in a row, including the Cavaliers in Ohio.
Their latest game was in Detroit against the Pistons, whom they also won 127-117. It was a huge comeback because the Kings had an 18-point deficit. Zach LaVine had 43 points, while DeMar DeRozan scored 37 for Sacramento.

Denver Nuggets vs. Sacramento Kings Betting Predictions
This will be a big test for the Nuggets who now need to regroup and evolve. Shock therapy often brings results, and we believe it would do here as well. Maybe some other players besides Jokic show up. Plus, Denver meets a team they like playing against, so yes, we will risk this one and bet on the Nuggets to win and cover a 2.5-point spread.
