Thursday’s NBA slate features the Sacramento Kings taking on the Washington Wizards and the Charlotte Hornets facing the Indiana Pacers. We break down each game for you with NBA expert tips and parlay picks for your wagering enjoyment.

Kings -12.5 |$1.95 @ Betright

Every game is a must-win for the Kings, who are barely holding on to the 10th and final Play-In spot in the West. You could say every game is a must-lose for the Wizards as they continue tanking to improve their NBA draft lottery odds.

Washington has lost eight of their last nine games and failed to cover in the same amount. Even if you remove their 53! point loss to the Pacers last Friday, their average margin of defeat drops to 12.7 points.

Sacramento has their own issues, losing six of their last seven, but this game should get them back on the winning track. Our NBA prediction for this one is that the Kings will cover.

Kings-Wizards Under 231.5 |$1.93 @ Playup

The Wizards will be decimated for this contest, with no less than five players out due to injury. The Kings will be relatively healthy as they put all hands on deck to make the Play-In.

However, Sacramento has struggled lately when it comes to hitting the Over, accomplishing it just once in their previous six matchups. Washington has fared better, going 4-2 hitting the Over in their last six games.

The game total of 231.5 has only been surpassed once by the Kings and twice by the Wizards in their last six. So, while this game should be a blowout, our expert tip is to take the Under on this one.

Hornets-Pacers Under 223.5 |$1.91 @ Betfocus

The Pacers are trying to hold on to home court advantage for the playoffs, while Charlotte will be without their star players and likely looking to lose.

Charlotte ranks dead last in the NBA in hitting the Over, with the Under winning 62.7% of the time. Indiana is near the bottom of the league when they’re favored at home. It’s not a surprise, then, that our best bet for this game is the Under.
