Oklahoma City Thunder vs Sacramento Kings

Oklahoma City Thunder vs Sacramento Kings 
The Oklahoma City Thunder and Sacramento Kings square off Wednesday night in NBA action at the Golden 1 Center.
The Oklahoma City Thunder could use a feel good victory after losing six of their last eight games. The Oklahoma City Thunder are averaging 105.3 points on 44.8 percent shooting and allowing 103.8 points on 44.5 percent shooting. Russell Westbrook is averaging 31.6 points and 10.4 assists while Victor Oladipo is averaging 16.9 points and 4.1 rebounds. Enes Kanter is the third double-digit scorer and Steven Adams is grabbing 8.1 rebounds. The Oklahoma City Thunder are shooting 33.2 percent from beyond the arc and 74.1 percent from the free throw line. The Oklahoma City Thunder are allowing 34.3 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 46.6 rebounds per game. The Oklahoma City Thunder have lost three straight road games.

The Sacramento Kings could also use a big win after losing seven of their last 10 games. The Sacramento Kings are averaging 101.4 points on 44.8 percent shooting and allowing 105 points on 46.4 percent shooting. DeMarcus Cousins is averaging 26.9 points and 9.6 rebounds while Rudy Gay is averaging 20.5 points and 2.7 assists. Darren Collison is the third double-digit scorer and Arron Afflalo is grabbing 2.6 rebounds. The Sacramento Kings are shooting 34.9 percent from beyond the arc and 77.7 percent from the free throw line. The Sacramento Kings are allowing 35.5 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 41.1 rebounds per game. The Sacramento Kings have split their last six home games.

The Thunder are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 Wednesday games and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 road games. The Kings are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 Wednesday games and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games overall. The Thunder are 1-5 ATS in the last 6 meetings and the under is 10-4 in the last 14 meetings.
The Thunder and the points may have the most value here, but it may be time to start seriously fading OKC. Westbrook can only do so much and it's been shown time and time again that OKC doesn't have the depth to help him out. The Thunder are dropping rapidly in the standings and this game doesn't favor them after playing a tough game against the Lakers Tuesday night. I have to side with the rested Kings at home.
