Whether fans have been in the stands or not, the Sixers have been deadly at home. After posting a 31-4 record there last season, they are 11-2 this season. However, they were a putrid 12-26 on the road last season, and while they have been better this season, a 6-5 record away from Philadelphia still isn’t great. The Kings are red-hot after winning seven of their last eight contests, so I could see them keeping this game close, if not winning outright.
The Kings have covered eight straight, winning seven of those straight-up and losing the other by one point at Miami. Defensive improvement has been the biggest reason why. In that stretch, Sacramento ranks 10th in defensive rating (110.8), compared to a season-long rating of 116.8. Although the 76ers have won three straight meetings, I expect this one to come down to the wire. Grab the points.
