Sacramento Kings vs Denver Nuggets: Current situation
With 3 wins in a row the Kings have eased the pressure a bit and are now in sole possessions of the 9th seed which gives them home court advantage in the play-in match-up against the Dallas Mavericks. Despite the win streak though there is no room for complacency, this team is still only 4-6 SU over their last 10 games. The good news is the two teams have a similarly difficult schedule in the 3 remaining games, so from a Kings perspective they are very much in play to finish 9th.
Denver’s form has collapsed at the worst time possible. With 4 losses in a row they are now in a 5-way tie with the Warriors, Clippers, Timberwolves and Grizzlies for the 4th seed. The Western Conference truly is something when it comes to playoff seeding, this type of finish to a season has not been seen in decades. To make matters worse for Denver they have the hardest remaining schedule out of all 5 of those teams.
Sacramento Kings Stats & Form
Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan took matters in their own hands and combined for 80 points as the Kings took down the Pistons on Monday, getting revenge for their defeat earlier in the season. As a team the Kings shot over 51% from the field and if you’re head coach Doug Christie you have to feel good after that performance. Kings are now 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games and 8-3 ATS in their last 11 vs Western Conference opponents.
Denver Nuggets Stats & Form
The Nuggets once again wasted a 41 point, 15 rebound and 13 assist performance by their best player Nikola Jokic. The defense was nowhere to be found as they allowed 125 points to the Indiana Pacers in a 5-point loss. Indiana recorded 10 steals in the win, the Nuggets will have to do a better job at taking care of the basketball on offense moving forward. They’ve now covered the spred just once in 7 games.

Betting tip and prediction: Sacramento Kings vs Denver Nuggets (09.04.2025)
All of the pressure is on Denver in this game as they look to overturn a 4-game losing streak. Dropping 4 games in a row couldn’t come at a worse time for the Nuggets as playoff positioning is on the line, they’ve made their lives extremely difficult and are now in danger of potentially even dropping into the play-in tournament. Something tells us the 3-time MVP Nikola Jokic will have a say regarding that in these next 3 games though. In his last 5 games against the Kings he’s averaging 21.2 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists per game, while recording 3 triple-doubles during that stretch. The MVP award might have been lost for this season, but Jokic can still make up for it by securing his team’s playoff berth without having to play additional games in the play-in tournament. Sacramento is very much a one dimensional team on offense as they mostly rely on the likes of LaVine and DeRozan to carry them. Nothing to take away from those two players who are exceptional, but that strategy will not work as good against teams like the Nuggets as it does against the likes of the Pistons or Hornets. Denver’s sense of urgency is far greater here, we just feel like that will bring out the best from this team and will result in a win. Back Denver to cover.
