Coming off a 48-34 regular season finish, the Sacramento Kings enter the playoffs as the third seed in the Western Conference. In round one, they will take on the Golden State Warriors where they are a rare underdog despite being the higher seed with home-court advantage. Find game-by-game predictions for Kings vs Warriors here, along with relevant odds and betting analysis information. Sacramento drafted Keegan Murray with the fourth overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft instead of trading down and gathering more assets, which can mean one of two things: either it has no idea what it’s doing or it has the utmost faith in Murray. My confidence is in the former, but the Kings have still quietly put together a solid lineup, featuring Murray, Domantas Sabonis, De’Aaron Fox, Davion Mitchell, Harrison Barnes, Kevin Huerter, and Malik Monk. While they likely won’t dominate an already brutal Western Conference, they will certainly be more competitive this season than the previous few decades.
