Have you already placed your bets as to who will dominate the game between the Sacramento Kings and the Brooklyn Nets this February 15, 2022? If not yet, here are some of the best betting picks and odds for the match that will take place in Barclays Center, Brooklyn, New York. 

 

The Brooklyn Nets are heading into this game with an 11-game lose streak which certainly does not help their odds of winning. Several of their best players were sidelined due to injury or personal reasons. Nic Claxton is out due to hamstring injury, as well Ben Simmons because of back issues, and Kevin Durant and LaMarcus Aldridge for ankle injury. Seth Curry and Andre Drummond are out due to trade pending. 

 

On top of that, they also were defeated by the Sacramento Kings when they went toe to toe last February 3, 2022, which came as a surprise to most considering that the Nets were viewed as one of the teams better than the Kings. As of today, the Nets are currently 12-14 on their home court and 8th in Eastern Conference, with Patty Mills averaging 13.4 points for the team, and Kyrie Irving averaging 24.9 points and 5.6 assists over the Nets’ last ten games. While they have lost their last 11 games and their last victory was on January 21, 2022 against the San Antonio Spurs, the team remains hopeful that with the James Harden trade for Simmons, Curry and Drummond, the debut of these players along key players such as Patty Mills and Blake Griffin may end the 11-game skid of the Nets. 

 

Unlike the Brooklyn Nets, the Sacramento Kings have been playing fairly decent lately, winning three out of their last five games. The Kings are currently 7-19 on the road and rank 13th in the Western Conference. Luckily for the Kings, they have way less players injured or sidelined compared to the Brooklyn Nets. 

 

As the two-time All-Star Domantas Sabonis plays for the Kings, this will surely give the team its much needed boost. The key players for this match will most likely be Sabonis, De’Aaron Fox, and Harrison Barnes, since they make a prolific core of the team.  

 

For our prediction, given that the Brooklyn Nets are shorthanded as of the moment, and the Sacramento Kings has gained a player that offers the team a head start, it will be no surprise if the Sacramento Kings take the win for this game again. Place your bets and witness the Sacramento Kings take on the Brooklyn Nets on February 15, 2022, 8:30AM PST, at the Barclays Center, Brooklyn, New York.
