Sacramento Kings vs Oklahoma City Thunder: Current situation
Opponent rebounds and opponent points in the paint have been on the raise for the Sacramento Kings ever since they lost their power forward and arguably best player Domantas Sabonis to an ankle injury. After a setback in his return attempt, Sabonis has sat out the last 2 games which the Kings lost to Chicago and Milwaukee at home. Sacramento could definitely use him, right now they are in the 9th seed with a 1.5 game edge on the Suns in 10th.
At 59-12 the Thunder now own the NBA’s best record due to the 4 losses in 5 games by the Cleveland Cavaliers. That could come in handy down the line if the two teams meet in the NBA Finals. Having the best record in the regular season also increases the chances for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to grab the MVP award ahead of Nikola Jokic. OKC is currently on a 6-game win streak going into Tuesday’s game.
Sacramento Kings Stats & Form
Very little paint protection has resulted in Giannis Antetokounmpo destroying the Kings with 32 points and 17 rebounds in their loss on Saturday against the Milwaukee Bucks. DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine tried their best to carry the scoring load, but until Sabonis returns the Kings won’t be competitive. The 9 threes scored on 23% efficiency in Saturday’s game is also concerning.
Oklahoma City Thunder Stats & Form
SGA had a relatively modest outing with just 26 points scored, but the Thunder were still able to come out of Los Angeles with a big win over the Clippers. They swept LA for the first time in a long time, despite shooting just 40% as a team from the field. That is the strength of this Thunder team. They are able to win games even when their shooting numbers aren’t all that great.
Sacramento Kings vs Oklahoma City Thunder: Head-to-Head
After a couple of blowout wins in the first 2 meetings, the Thunder are looking to sweep the regular season series in Tuesday’s game. Right now they are on a 4-game win streak in head-to-head meetings, this will be the 255th regular season game all-time between the two franchises. OKC holds a commanding 153-101 lead in wins so far.

Betting tip and prediction: Sacramento Kings vs Oklahoma City Thunder (25.03.2025)
Neither Jalen Williams nor Chet Holmgren suited up for the Thunder in their latest win over the LA Clippers and it didn’t make much of a difference in the final result. This is one of the deepest rosters we have in the NBA, they will only get better as time goes on and they get their full team back from injuries. The same applies to the Kings who are currently struggling without Sabonis on the interior. Isaiah Hartenstein will dominate the boards in this game if Sabonis doesn’t play, this was the main reason why the Thunder have recorded 34 and 21 point wins in the first 2 meetings this season. In one of those games they outrebounded the Kings 70-37, which just goes to show how vulnerable the Kings are in this area of play. SGA did not have the best of games in the win over the Clippers, so he will be looking to redeem himself here. Sacramento has not had an answer for him in the last 5 meetings – he’s averaging 37.4 points on 54% shooting from the field and 44% from three on 2.2 makes per game. There’s a clear and obvious disparity in talent when comparing these two teams, we are of the opinion that this game is OKC’s to lose. So let’s back the Thunder to win their 7th straight game while also covering the spread here.
