Sacramento Kings
Game Totals Pick
Under 226.5(-110)
The Sacramento Kings visit the Phoenix Suns to open their regular season in a game in which we can expect to see both sides going through growing pains. The Phoenix Suns will be adjusting to life without Kevin Durant, which will be a huge blow for their offense. Devin Booker clearly has the the keys to the franchise now but with a far less efficient 2nd option in Jalen Green, he could have issues steering them in the right direction. They have however acquired an aggressive perimeter defender in Dillon Brooks which should help against opposing wings. With the additions of Mark Williams and rookie Khaman Malauch, they also have far more rim protection that they did last season.

For the Sacramento Kings, Domantas Sabonis could have issues playing to his strengths and finishing in the paint. He will be giving up a length advantage to both of the Suns centers, so do not be surprised to see them impact his shot attempts. The team also has a couple of new point guards at the helm with Dennis Schroder and Russell Westbrook joining the team. Expect early gelling issues from both. These teams were 19th and 21st last season in pace of play, with both games between these sides coming in under 229 points. I expect another low scoring game between them to start this one off.

Under 226.5 available at time of publishing. Playable to under 225.5.

Like most Lithuanians, I started watching basketball from the age of six. I'm based out in London and played basketball at the University of Lincoln here in the UK. I had always had an interest in the NBA but things really took off in the summer of 2010. That year Linas Kleiza led Lithuania to 3rd place at the World Championships and signed with the Toronto Raptors to replace the departing Chris Bosh. I've been a Raptors fan since that day and I've not missed a game since. I've been handicapping games for more than a decade, specializing in player props.
