What to Know

This Tuesday, the Sacramento Kings are hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 118.77 points per contest. They are staying on the road Tuesday to face off against the Oklahoma City Thunder at 8 p.m. ET May 4 at Chesapeake Energy Arena. The Kings will be seeking to avenge the 112-108 loss they suffered the last time these two teams played Feb. 27 of last year.

Sacramento didn't have too much trouble with the Dallas Mavericks on the road on Sunday as they won 111-99. Shooting guard Buddy Hield (27 points) was the top scorer for Sacramento.

Meanwhile, Oklahoma City was close but no cigar on Sunday as they fell 123-120 to the Phoenix Suns. Small forward Luguentz Dort had a rough night: he played for 34 minutes with 4-for-19 shooting.

Sacramento is the favorite in this one, with an expected 4.5-point margin of victory. But bettors beware: they are only 7-14-1 against the spread when favored.

Sacramento's win lifted them to 27-37 while Oklahoma City's loss dropped them down to 21-44. In their victory, Sacramento relied heavily on power forward Marvin Bagley III, who had 23 points in addition to nine rebounds. the Thunder will need to find a way to minimize his impact if they want to win.
