Portland Trail Blazers vs Sacramento Kings Prediction

The Sacramento Kings have lost six of their last seven preseason games and haven’t played an ounce of defense in two games. I also wonder if the Kings will give some of their key players some rest after playing parts of each of the first two games. The Portland Trail Blazers didn’t look good in their first preseason effort, but they are still a young team with open playing time and that usually breeds competitiveness and better effort in these exhibitions. I’m not ready to give up on the Trail Blazers in the preseason just yet. I’ll take the points.
