Indiana Pacers (12-8) vs. Sacramento Kings (10-9)
The 2022-23 NBA season goes on with a huge 13-game slate on the last day of November, so we are breaking down the interconference showdown from Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California, to get you the best Pacers vs. Kings betting pick and odds.
Indiana and Sacramento lock horns for the first time in 2022-23. Last season, they split a two-game set, and each team emerged victorious as a road dog. The Kings open as 4.5-point home favorites for Wednesday’s clash, while the totals are listed at 239.0 points. Sacramento might miss Trey Lyles due to a non-COVID illness. On the other side, Indiana is without Chris Duarte (knee).
The Indiana Pacers (12-8; 13-7 ATS) continue their five-game west-coast road trip. After a 114-100 defeat at the Los Angeles Clippers this past Sunday, the Pacers outlasted the Los Angeles Lakers 116-115 as 3.5-point underdogs on the second day of a back-to-back set at Crypto.com Arena in LA. Indiana erased a 17-point fourth-quarter deficit against Purple-and-Gold, and rookie Andrew Nembhard hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer to give his team a huge victory.
“I think you stay calm because you work in the gym for those types of moments,” Nembhard said. “You’ve just got to bring your confidence, and when it comes, you’ve just got to step up for the team in that way. I think it was a great team win. We had a lot of contributions from a lot of guys, a nd it was just my turn to step up at that moment.
