Game Preview

Two teams adapting to significant absences meet again Wednesday night as the Phoenix Suns visit the Sacramento Kings—a matchup ripe with betting potential. The Suns opened their NBA Cup campaign with a 120-112 road win over the Utah Jazz on Tuesday, powered by Devin Booker’s 31 points and Bradley Beal’s 24. Bettors should note that Phoenix is on the second night of a back-to-back and has another NBA Cup game slated for Friday against the Oklahoma City Thunder, which could influence player fatigue and rotations.

Phoenix will be eager to avenge their 127-118 overtime loss to the Kings on Sunday. In that game, DeMar DeRozan took over in overtime, outscoring the Suns single-handedly. De’Aaron Fox also contributed significantly, making both players interesting options for prop bets. However, the Suns are without Kevin Durant, who is sidelined with a strained left calf and won’t play this week. Durant’s absence—he averages 27.6 points and 6.6 rebounds per game—could impact Phoenix’s offensive output, a critical factor for those considering over/under bets.

Bradley Beal’s status is also uncertain after he strained his calf late in the win against Utah. Coach Mike Budenholzer mentioned that a decision on Beal will be made after further evaluation. Beal himself seemed optimistic, but bettors should keep an eye on injury reports before placing wagers.

The Kings, who had Tuesday off, are dealing with their own injury woes. Supersub Malik Monk sprained his right ankle against Phoenix and is expected to be out until the end of the month. Without Monk, Sacramento’s bench was outscored 37-21 in their 116-96 loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Monday. This bench disparity could be crucial for spread bettors.

De’Aaron Fox emphasized Monk’s importance, calling him a "sixth starter" who can start for many teams. Monk’s absence last season led to a late-season slide for the Kings, which might influence futures bets on their performance.

In the previous matchup, DeRozan dropped 34 points, Fox added 21, and Domantas Sabonis contributed 20 points and 12 rebounds. Keegan Murray’s crucial tip-in forced overtime, highlighting his potential impact for player prop bets.

Bettors should consider the Suns’ potential fatigue from playing consecutive nights and the Kings’ extra rest. Phoenix’s motivation for revenge could counterbalance their tired legs, making the moneyline and point spread intriguing options.

With both teams adjusting to key injuries, this rematch presents various gambling opportunities. Whether you’re looking at total points, player props, or the spread, keep a close eye on lineup changes and injury updates to make informed bets as the Suns and Kings clash once more.
