Expert picks & predictions for Saturday’s Kings vs. Magic game
NBC Sports Bet Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans the Magic to win:
“Sacramento is starting a six-game East Coast road trip after playing the last seven at home (3-4 record). I don’t like the travel or setup for Sacramento tonight, so I lean toward the Magic who are a streaky team to bet, but they are 3-1 in the last four and 4-2 in the past six.”
