Portland Trail Blazers vs Sacramento Kings Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 01/18/26

The Portland Trail Blazers will travel south on Sunday to face the Sacramento Kings. The Trail Blazers have a record of 21-22 and they are 9-12 when playing on the road. Portland has won its last 2 games, including a 132-116 win Saturday night over the Los Angeles Lakers. Shaedon Sharpe led the team in scoring with 25 points and Donovan Clingan added 18 points and 11 rebounds. The Kings are 12-30 (9-13 at home). Sacramento has won its last 4 games, including a 128-115 victory over the Washington Wizards this last Friday.

Not a lot has gone well for the Kings. Finally, halfway through the season, they are getting healthier and have found a spark. Not only have they won their last 4 games, but they also seem to be having fun playing basketball again. Sacramento may be in too big of a hole to climb out of, but that is not keeping it from playing inspired basketball. The Kings will try to make it 5 straight against the Trail Blazers, who will be looking to even their record back at .500 for the first time since November 14. The Trail Blazers have been on an impressive streak of their own, winning 9 of their last 12. Portland has already beaten Sacramento twice this season. Despite the recent success, it is important to remember that the Kings still rank 28th in points per game, 30th in threes made and 27th in rebounding. Sacramento has looked good in the past week, but Portland has looked good over the past month. I believe the Blazers have a good opportunity tonight to get back to .500.
