NBA Odds: Lakers-Kings prediction, pick, how to watch - 1/7/2023 (ClutchPoints)

A battle out west will take place under the lights as the Los Angeles Lakers square off with the Sacramento Kings at Golden 1 Center.

Saturday night’s task at hand in covering the spread and ultimately coming away triumphant will be an uphill climb against a red-hot Lakers crew, but the single biggest advantage that Sacramento has over Los Angeles is the fact that they are fully healthy for the most part. In an attempt to dig their way out of a massive hole when they started the season 2-10, the Lakers are in the driver’s seat to make a winning runner the course of the next month before the All-Star Break if they can continue balling out. in fact, during LA’s four-game winning streak, the Lakers have managed to score at least 130n points twice and are simply attacking the opposition with stellar offense. Who could’ve thunk it, but here are the Sacramento Kings holding on to a first-place division lead with a 20-17 record and a one-game lead on both the Warriors and Clippers. While the Lakers are a more formidable squad when Davis is suiting up for play, the Lakers have handled business in an impressive way especially of late. Obviously, it is greatly needed as the Lakers enter play on Saturday with an 18-21 record and are dead last in the Pacific Division Standings.

He's more or less Wenyen Gabriel, but considering that LA is almost sure to part with Damian Jones in the offseason, the team will be looking for more minimum-salaried big man bench reinforcements. This season, in a smaller role with a good Kings team, Davis is averaging 6.6 points on .437/.362/.824 shooting splits, 2.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.7 steals. Last year Davis averaged 10.4 points on a .423/.329/.818 slash line, 3.1 rebounds, 1.3 dimes and 0.8 steals. The 6'9" power forward, like Davis, has taken a step back this season in a smaller role with the team. Barnes could start at either forward spot alongside LeBron James.T he 30-year-old combo forward could help spell LeBron James defensively against bigger fours, but also has the athleticism to stay with small forwards. Well hey, their current one (Lonnie Walker IV) is playing pretty darn well on both sides of the ball this season, and could be in line for a raise next summer.

Lakers player grades: Los Angeles wins shootout versus Kings (LeBron Wire)

The Lakers scored a big road win on Saturday over the Sacramento Kings, and it was a team effort.

As a result, Gabriel was in foul trouble for much of the night, and he fouled out with 39.7 seconds left in the third period. His 23 points and 15 rebounds were a major factor in L.A.’s victory. He also hit some perimeter shots while grabbing 14 rebounds, and he had a couple of offensive rebounds in crunch time that helped lead to this win. First, he tipped away an inbounds pass with 22.3 seconds left in the fourth quarter, leading to a big Sacramento turnover. Time and time again, he attacked the basket and took advantage of a Kings team that lacks shot-blocking. His energy and effort defensively has been beneficial, but sooner or later the Lakers will need him to start consistently hitting open 3-pointers to space the floor for his teammates.

And the type of guys we got in the locker room, it’s a lot of talk about our roster all the time. Westbrook had 23 and 15 assists off the bench, the Lakers now just two games under .500.
