[10:40 PM] Spurs @ Kings

Who will WIN this matchup?

San Antonio Spurs (8-3)

@ Sacramento Kings (4-7)

 

• The line for this game is San Antonio by 5.5 points.

• The San Antonio Spurs haven’t lost on the road this season but that mark is about to get tested. San Antonio won all five road encounters but Wednesday’s visit to play the Sacramento Kings begins a stretch in which it plays five of its next six in enemy arenas.

• Leonard had 24 points and a season-high 12 rebounds in the victory over the Heat to record his second double-double of the season. Leonard and coach Gregg Popovich were both concerned about the season-worst 17 turnovers as San Antonio’s sloppy play allowed Miami to hang around.

• Sacramento dropped its last two games but has been off since Friday so it will be well-rested for the Spurs. Star center DeMarcus Cousins is averaging 26.6 points and 8.6 rebounds and he is growing frustrated that the Kings haven’t been able to play well for a sustained period.

• The Spurs went 3-0 against the Kings last season and have won the past six meetings.

• San Antonio SG Danny Green (groin) could be rested after being limited to 15 minutes before departing against the Heat.

• Sacramento SF Rudy Gay had 29 points and a season-best 14 rebounds in Friday’s 122-120 overtime loss to Portland for his seventh 20-point outing of the season.
