Randy’s Pick

It's not going to be easy for the Sacramento Kings to get back up after that battle with the Warriors last night that included a last second winner. The Los Angeles Clippers have the edge with the rest, and they've played their best ball over the last week or so. With that said, the Clippers threw in a stinker, losing to the Nuggets without three starters. Right when you're ready to believe in the Clippers, they pull that crap. At home, give me the Kings and the free bucket.
