Sacramento and Minnesota Team News
Sacramento Kings are still without Eric Moreland and Darren Collison, and Carl Landry is suspended. Nik Stauskas is questionable with a back injury, and Rudy Gay is also a question mark with a concussion. He missed two games already. Minnesota are in trouble as they could miss up to eight players, most notably in the paint. Starting center Nikola Pekovic is out for a while now, Gorgui Deng is also out, and Kevin Garnett is unlikely to play. Forwards Shabazz Muhammad and Anthony Bennett are also out but the troubles don’t end there as Ricky Rubio is out as well. Kevin Martin is probable.

Sacramento Kings vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction. The injury to Ricky Rubio was more bad news for the Timberwolves and they can write this season off as the worst in recent years. Minnesota aren’t a competitive team right now. Sacramento are just marginally better, and they at least have a good center in DeMarcus Cousins, but they’re just as inconsistent as any losing team. Since this is a duel of two awful teams, there can be no prediction of who will cover the spread, but it will likely again be a free-scoring affair. Kings vs Timberwolves Betting Pick: Over 213 points. You can also go for player props and choose players who will score over the predicted total. Go for DeMarcus Cousins and Zach Lavine. Kings vs Timberwolves Predicted Score: 111-103
