Kings vs. Trailblazers Picks
Point Spread Pick for Kings vs. Trailblazers
- Portland Trailblazers to cover. (4 Units)
The Trailblazers have the edge in this game because they’re playing well offensively, scoring more than 116 points per game in their last three games, while making 46 percent of their shots. They’ve also done a better job at the charity stripe, making 80 percent of their free throws during that span, while the Kings made less than 70 percent of theirs. They rebound the ball well and grab more than 14 offensive rebounds per game, which will give them more scoring chances. They also cut down their turnovers in recent games, and won’t give the Kings many easy-scoring looks. The Kings have one of the worst defenses in the league, and won’t play any of their starters in this game, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Trailblazers. Take Portland to cover the spread.
