Trail Blazers vs Kings Predictions, Picks and Player Props (2/23)

Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers bounce into Sacramento to take on De'Aaron Fox and the Kings in a Western conference shootout…if the Blazers can make it to Sacramento in time.

I'm hearing the Trail Blazers have just boarded their plane in Portland. They are going to de-ice and hope to be off the ground in the next 45 minutes. Flight time is about 90 minutes. I'll update this story as more information becomes available.https://t.co/Io1HJvKngf

As I mentioned before, it is worth monitoring over the next few hours to make sure that this game ends up being able to go with the Blazers getting out of Portland.

Keep an eye on that but if it does, we should have a dandy in Sacramento tonight.

The Kings have been the surprise team of the West and maybe the entire NBA so far, sitting 3rd in the conference and poised to make their first playoff appearance since 2002!

Tonight, they get a chance to further stake their claim and get back to winning ways after the All-Star break, and if this game is played, I think they do so.

But given both of these teams scoring ability and lack of defense, I am going to take the over and sit back and enjoy of buckets.

It should be a shootout between two of the leagues best scoring Point guards in Dame and Fox and I can't wait to watch them go head to head and help to cash this over!

The Blazers last 5 games have features 3 overs and the Kings 4 of their last 5 have climbed over the Total as well.

Player Prop of the Game

De'Aaron Fox o25.5 Points (-125) Bet MGM

Hard not to ride with one of the best scoring point guards in the league in an awesome matchup.

Fox was great leading up to the All-Star game, scoring 30+ points in 7 of the King's 8 games before the break.

He also had 33 points in the matchup withe the Blazers in October this season.

I love Fox to attack the paint and get to his spots all night long and possibly have another 30 point performance.

Bonus: De'Aaron Fox 30+ points (+150)
