Sacramento +5

Normally Memphis can overpower teams up front with Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph. That will be a challenge when they face Sacramento and DeMarcus Cousins who about the baddest dude in the NBA these days.

He is good too, since coming back from suspension he has had a double-double in 6 straight including a triple-double against the Celtics. He and Jason Thompson have the size and game to bother those two.

I would love it if Tyreke Evans were back but the Kings have been mixing and matching in the backcourt successfully lately, they are 6-4 in their last 10 and probably playing their best ball of the season.

This is their first game home after a ‘NorEaster’ and they are much better at home too.
