Golden State Warriors vs Sacramento Kings Bet Builder: Sunday, November 13th

We are not even a month into the NBA season, and Golden State Warriors are already playing the Sacramento Kings third time. They won the first two despite having a poor start to the season.

Golden State Warriors vs Sacramento Kings Preview

The Warriors had a 5-game losing streak before this week, but they finally managed to win two games in a row for the first time this season. They lost games against the worst teams in the league, Orlando Magic, Detroit Pistons, and Charlotte Hornets. Both wins against the Kings came in the last minute, winning by 3 and 5 points. The main issue is their defence, currently ranked as the 6th worst in the league, which is inexcusable for the defending champions, who also had the best defensive rating last season.

The Kings had a poor start to the season, losing the first 4 matches, but they won 5 out of their last 7 since. They still didn’t improve on the defensive end (4th worst defensive rating, the same as the previous season), but their offence is working great. They scored 110+ points in 8 out of their last 9 games.

Stephen Curry was the most impactful player in the first 2 games between these 2 teams, scoring 33 and 47 points. The Kings don’t have a capable defensive player to stop Curry, and the way he is playing this season, I see him with another big performance tonight.

The Warriors have been struggling to defend bigs the entire season. They allow the most points to opposing Power Forwards and the 2nd most points to opposing Centers, so Sabonis should be up to another massive game against them. He had 19 points and 14 rebounds in both games and added 4 and 6 assists.
