Advice and Prediction

With their season on the line, the Sacramento Kings will likely lean on what helped get them the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference, offense. The Kings high-powered offense has been slowed down with Steve Kerr adjusting to a smaller starting lineup that features Jordan Poole with the starters and Draymond Green off the bench.

While the Kings will likely be firing from deep to get back to what they do best to save their season, they’ll be going up against two of the league’s top postseason closers in Steph Curry and Klay Thompson.

With a litany of experience in close out games, the veteran duo of Curry and Thompson will ready to answer any storm the Kings’ offense cooks up.

Over 236.5 has hit in three of the five games during the series with the highest scoring contest coming in Game 4. The last game at Chase Center, the Kings and Warriors combined for 251.

Add the Kings offense against the Splash Brothers at home and expect points. Roll with the over at 236.5.

Best Bet: Over 236.5

Prediction: Warriors 123-118

Bonus Player Prop: Klay Thompson over 4.5 made 3-pointers.
