Smart Game Analysis
Portland Trail Blazers has a 65% chance of winning the game

The Trail Blazers are poised to sweep the home-and-home set due to a massive rebounding advantage and superior recent offensive production against a depleted Kings roster.

Key Analysis
  • Sacramento's 29th-ranked rebounding unit will struggle severely without Domantas Sabonis against a Portland team that ranks 7th on the glass.
  • The Kings are missing two of their top three scorers with Sabonis and Zach LaVine ruled out due to injuries.
  • Portland has significant offensive momentum, having scored 134 and 136 points in their last two victories.
  • The Trail Blazers average 14.0 made three-pointers per game compared to Sacramento's league-worst 10.7.
  • Sacramento's defense ranks 27th in the league and just allowed 134 points to this same Portland team on Thursday.
  • Portland is favored by 5 points on the road, a strong indicator of the disparity in current team form.
