Rockets vs. Kings Odds & Betting Predictions - March 10, 2024

POD

Rockets playing well, while Kings bad as home chalk going 3-9 ATS last dozen times in that role.

Sengun is rising and making a late push in the MIP conversation due to his recent play. He has been a monster since the All-Star Break as a scoring and rebounding threat but I’m targeting his assists in what should be a fun matchup between him and Domantas Sabonis on the interior. Sengun has exceeded 4.5 assists in six consecutive games with 6+ in all of them and double digit dimes in 3/6. He is averaging 8.8 assists per game of this stretch. On the season, Sengun is averaging 5 assists on 8.4 potentials. Over the last two seasons he is averaging 10.6 potentials per game against the Kings. While the conversion rate is noticeably higher, it’s the matchup that has been a major factor in why. I expect Sengun to exceed his base line of 4.5 assists and would play some alts as well with 6+ (+220 ESPN) and 8+ (+700 FD) clearly standing out.

Getting this one in early for tomorrow because I don’t expect this to be plus odds tomorrow. Sengun has 14 and 6 assists in his last two games, but it’s his history against the Kings that jumps out. Over the last six games against the Kings, Sengun is averaging 8.8 assists per game. Sengun assists vs. SAC: 10/7/7/11/6/12 I’m very tempted to run the triple double too but Sengun has only reached 10 rebounds in 1 of those games. He’s had 10/6/7/9/9/8 rebounds in his last 6 games against the Kings, so the assists have been far more reliable.
